QSO WITH THE MAYOR OF HIS HOMETOWN AUSTIN, TEXAS THEN HE ASKED US TO
SPONSOR AN AUSTIN SCHOOL QSO.  HE GOT THE MAYOR TO BRING KIDS INTO THE
MAYORS OFFICE FOR THE QSO.  LAST I HEARD, SEVERAL BUSLOADS OF KIDS WERE
BEING BROUGHT TO THE MAYORS OFFICE.  AND RIGHT AFTER THAT QSO, HE THRILLS
HAMS WITH MORE QSOS.  WEVE GOTTEN SEVERAL NOTES FROM HAMS WHO TALKED TO
RICHARD SAYING THEY HAD TALKED TO HIS DAD YEARS AGO, TOO.  PRETTY COOL
