To the MMD:  This is a comment on Stephen Kent Goodman's review of the
video of the Spirit of Independence (SofI) in yesterdays MMD.  Although
I have not seen the video, I did have the privilege of seeing this
fabulous machine in person over the Christmas Holidays.

SofI is everything Mr. Goodman and others have said and more.  One item
that was missed, however, is that fact that it is for sale.  If you are
interested in discussing this possibility, contact the owner and
creator of SofI, Craig Brougher, at <craigbr@mindspring.com>.

Thanks again to Craig and Ellen Brougher for being such gracious hosts
to me, my wife, three smaller children, and father-in-law.  Ellen said
she now knows (I'm sure more than she ever wanted to know) all about
Poke'mon!
