v7.3. It will be online sporadically, but pretty much full-time for
now, to help heat the building until we get our natural gas feed
turned on.   (no joke!)

Of course photographs of vaxen pron are always welcome ;)

I took some quick cell phone pics the other day for someone else who

I'm sorry for the poor quality.   I'll take proper pics when I get
things organized a bit in here.
