THere was a Zero, mailed in December, a warm yellow color and a few pages 
saying something like, "Not sure this will work, but .." It was mailed to 
3,900 Bridgestone Owners Bunch (BOB) members--kind of the precursor to our 
current customer/mailing list. In the last year of Bstone, lots of the fun 
good stuff there was sitting unsold bc bike dealers didn't want it (wool 
jerseys, XO-1's..) and rather than discount it below cost to clear the 
shelves, I suggested we sell it direct to people who did want it. So BOB 
was formed, with a newsletter called the BOB Gazette. It went on for a year 
or so, we sold bike stuff, The Song of Hiawatha, and the last of the 
world's professional grade horsehide baseballs, and other stuff. When 
Bstone announce closing down, I asked for the BOB mailing list, the 3,900, 
as part of my going away package (I'd copied it on a floppy just in 
case...), and boss said Yes, and that's how it went.
