[78-L] Seipp

[David Lennick]

A chunk was lost when a storage facility caught fire, or it might have been his 
garage. He was a member of CAPS and used to drive all the way to Toronto to 
attend meetings, if it's the same guy, but he was living in Chicago then.

Could be this guy..you ever get the feeling that there's too much information 
accessible?
