Paranoia
Howdy from Texas where it is mid-February and we are having a false Spring,
When it comes to computer and network security, I am down right paranoid. So much of our private information is stored across cloud server farms and on our metalcasting and home computers. Every hour we learn of another website that has been hacked. I thought I would devote this month’s blog to keeping your information as safe as can be. -
Upbeat AFS Texas Meeting
Howdy from Texas,
I’m just back from the January 2017 AFS, American Foundry Society, meeting at the Sam Houston Horse Race Track; in Houston, none the less!
It is always so good to catch up with fellow metalcasters that embody the spirit of the AFS and continue the long historical legacy of turning liquid metal into castings! The turnout for the board and general meeting was better than expected and in the end, it turned out to be a large crowd of approximately seventy members.

He was there on the “morning” of D-Day off the coast of France helping bombard the fortifications along the coast.
