Gordon-I did not intend for my comments to anger of offend. I fear I have done both, and I do apologize. I simply felt your remarks to be a bit harsh, and only intended to offer my philosophy concerning the older plans that are about. I do enjoy the mystery of old plans sets, and spend hours trying to figure out what the designer must have been thinking when he drew a particular fitting that makes no sense at all... I can see how you may have thought I was being, perhaps, superior (?) in mentioning Paul Poberezney's name, but I was simply trying to establish some background for my comments. A common theme, or connection that all homebuilders seem to have. Perhaps I was a bit too zealous.Again, an apology for anything said that has angered or offended.Sincerely,Steven SpeidelReplicraft Aviation________________________________________________________________________________

SteveI just zapped you off a message related to our short discussion earlierabout another list member and myself talking about this very same idea as ajoint project between this group and some other piet members of IHANot wanting to change Barnards wonderfull ideas and considering it is fun tobuild something from age old plans I would even be in aggrement to supplyDon Pietenpol all the changes to sell with his set of plans, would make anice package. Or the corrections be part of the Piet Org. I understand Donmay not be a designer so with help form some here and getting all theinformation together it could do something to help all those coming in afterus, Help me for sure.Last nite was no fun but I did stick my foot in my mouth also and I give myapology to the group as well, we all grow from thses things don't we.ThanksGordon----- Original Message -----________________________________________________________________________________

Gordon & Steve, I know we've talked offline a bit about all this, but way to go for both of you! I respect you both for your notes of apology. Now, we have that little misunderstanding out of the way, maybe we can make something good happen from all of that!Just thinking out loud!Gary Meadows________________________________________________________________________________
