Ha! I've visited him, but the name escapes me. I was in Oregon about 8 or 9 years ago to visit friends and drove down to his place. I'd proposed doing a shrunken 77, ala the Little Sharps. As I recall, I was planning on 32-40, or was it 357? His concentration seemed to be slipping and while he agreed to do it, he didn't answer my later queries and I dropped it.
