Elliott Brack

I went to Elliot Brack's funeral yesterday. He was a friend. And he was quite a character. He was one of the first people I met outside of work when I moved to Georgia. He was sort of a variation of the main character of Tom Wolfe's "A Man In Full". I used to say that Elliott and I had a 50-50 relationship. He told me what to do and I did it. His 50% was telling me. My 50% was doing it. He was a fixture at my church and involved me in all sorts of things. Including organization of our "Civic Breakfast" where we invited leaders from the community for information and opinions of the community. It goes on and on. There were 260 people attending his funeral. He will be missed. https://www.crowellbrothers.com/obituaries/Elliott-Earl-Brack?obId=48440319

The penthouse is more difficult to furnish than initially figured. But we are working on it. I went to the Orange County (California) fair. It is close-by. We will be back this season in the next couple of weeks. The ionizing radiation levels have been slightly lower today than normal in Costa Mesa, CA. I had some vivid dreams this past week. I miss my friend Pete. He really was amazing. We are trying to tally his patents. His goal was 100. Beside the measurement using patents (post Polaroid-Kodak patent lawsuit~4.5 million) there was so much more.
