[Rhodes22-list] Tribute to Michael Meltzer

[Robert Dobson]

I had no idea that our list "Pro" was a Pru product. I
have been with Prudential for 29 years. I guess I am
one of though old goats, but way too young to retire.-

Again, What a country! Even with all our problems, we
are way ahead of 98% of the rest of the world. My
daughter got back for Rumania a year ago with a
similar report. Technology is 20-30 years behind what
we can not live with out. God has Blessed America.
