I was afraid of this, back when Richard stopped posting. I had even checked the obits in that area a couple of times when he didn't answer email.
... a true character ... but I'm not so sure the Dime Box was fictitious ? -----Original Message----- From: Horace Heffner To: Vortex-L Subject: [Vo]:Richard C Macaulay Many of you I am sure fondly remember the many fun postings here from the "Dime Box Saloon" by Richard C Macaulay. I was surprised recently to find this obituary for him: http://obit.memorialoakschapel.com/obitdisplay.html?task=Print&id=757483 He died Feb. 19, 2010. He had much expertise in the practical generation and use of vortices, as well as the politics of energy and economics in Texas. His contributions and good humor posted from the Dime Box Saloon, his fictitious hangout, have been missed. Best regards, Horace Heffner http://www.mtaonline.net/~hheffner/
