In 85 or 86 I wasn't even close to being born yet...that was a long time ago.

Anyways, what is this thing you are talking about...I can't say that I've ever heard of it.

Sounds like a pretty neat idea. I'm guessing they raised quite a few $ then. That is good to hear that someone came up with and made something like that happen.
