Hey
Looking to see if anyone is here from the 95 or 96 sesaon from the engine house or platform. Also wanted to see if any knows what happened to Randy and Ron, I understand they aren't there any longer.
I don't know this for a fact, but it's possible that Randy has retired. This was Randy's thirtith year at the Point. He literally was walking in the door of the enginehouse as I was walking out for the very last time in 1974.
Well I do know Ron Left in 1998 for another job at a school in maintenace. Randy the last time i was there in 2002 or 03 was still there.

Randy's still around as far as I know... I worked on the engine this last season and in 2002... He hadn't mentioned anything about retiring anytime soon... There's a few Mikes you could be referring to... Mike Hetrich, Mike Stryke, and Mike something else... The third Mike is the one that went to Vegas... I worked with him in 2002... You trying to get into contact with anybody? I might be able to help you out a little bit...
I worked with Myron "Mike" Hetrick (Myron H) years ago. He had replaced the CP&LE's first super Jack Foster. Mike had to have retired at least twenty years ago. Randy started late in 74, about seasons end as I recall.
You're right.. brain-fart.. Randy is still there.. Mike is the one who left..
Long day at work.. sorry... ;)

The Mike I was referring to is the one who came from Animation. All the Engine Crew gave him the hardest time. The last year i was there he kept saying he was looking elsewhere to get out of there. The Guys would go get him lunch. They would take his olives from his salad and put hot sauce in it. Rob I probably saw you before I still would go over and visit in 2000 when i was on Mantis. I am the one if you ever heard that one engine guy that they didn't like either put somthing like gun powder in an ashtray in engine room and it ignited with my cig and burned my hand.
