KR>The KR-2 in Realtime
Good Morning Net It's 8 AM here in Michigan, my coffee is on the brew and I have scanned the top stories on Yahoo and read the overnight posts on KR-Net. Years ago, that is in the early 70's for some and back to 83 for me, I started to follow the KR aircraft. builders were plentiful even back then, but they were far apart. News was by way of the newsletters and usually came once a month. It seemed that there was so little information. Yet, builders and others read each line over and over and saved the old papers in collections. Look as us now, it's nearly like turning on the morning news. The net can take credit for making improvements to the craft, and helping builders and want-a-bee's through all sorts of dilemmas and decisions. As I read this mornings posts mostly on the continuations of several threads, it reminded me of the Editorial Pages in the Daily News, where the most vivid opinions are printed I think just to stir public discussion. The really neat thing about the net is it's Real Time nature. Events are current such as Larry's first flight, and Brian's plight. One of things that is the hardest to do is to admit in public that we have flaws and make mistakes. Brian was brave. It is easy to say "I did it", and wait for all the congrats. I feel that it is equally as important to know how to successfully accomplish a task such as the dangerous HS taxi, as it is to know what went wrong when one of the unfortunate things happen. Each of these has a place in helping others become more successful. Like it or not the KRnet is a social entity. You only have to read for a few days to see friendship and negative emotions displayed on a global basis. The KRnet is a family. My only wish is that we could get Mother Jeanette occasionally speak.

RE: My only wish is that we could get Mother Jeanette occasionally speak. I'm with you. We all miss out and she is missing the most. We are her family and if she would just once participate with us, I know that it would enrich her life, not to mention what it would do for the KR and the netters who don t know her. She is a fine person and I have a real hard time figuring out why she won't communicate with us. Maybe she will be at the gathering this year and we can gang up on her.

Short answer "GRANDMA", Long answer, during thee past years, the grandchildren have come first. She funded the wing skins, saw that plans were available, parts suppliers kept up with supply and Lost Ken Brock, her main supplier. Nor bad on a not quite part time business.

It would be nice to get her a computer, maybe a notebook or something.
