Yes, James and Associates was the first company we ever
bought our personal GPS receivers from... I think his
'kitchen' was too small to handle the load of business, and
then the competition got more intense... -And his Mac
didn't get along well with GPS stuff...

We have been to his house in Nederland, CO, because our
daughter used to live there at one time... I took a GPS fix
of his house back in the SA days... He lives on the side of
a steep hill overlooking a lake:

I'll never forget the proper "dress" in Nederland... I
think they have stores that sell 'pre-grungy' clothes... A
fellow in a suit would be pegged as an FBI or CIA agent
immediately! Once I had to break a $50 bill for some
'homeless man', so he could pay for his breakfast...
