Your blogs make me laugh...you have such a hilarious way with words and ideas. (By the way, I found you through Angela).<BR/><BR/>Yeah, I remember Nate. I can vaguely picture his face. We were at BYU at the same time but he was always hanging out with the folk-music crowd so we didn't mix much. I studied classical so I was always either in the practice rooms or in orchestra rehearsal in E-250. Either way you look at it, you're always in the basement of the HFAC.
