[78-L] The Dating Guide - blocked!

[David Lennick]

 Not me..I wonder if it was Ken McPherson who wrote it? First I've seen of Steve's 'retirement' place being north of Oshawa.

He was forced to sell much of his collection in the divorce but after the second hospitalization he came home to find people rifling his collection and paperwork, since they'd somehow been informed that he wasn't returning. That was unpleasant.

Was it you, David, who wrote about Steve in The 78 rpm Record Spins?

A sad story, all the same. Didn't a similar thing happen to Steve's 
record collection when he divorced?
