Oops , sorry Ralph , :oops: I wasn't a Giant or a Dodger fan back then ....the cross river Tigers and Al Kaline , et al , were my team ....until the Blue Jays arrived in '77.

Yeah , CN , we do get paid , but it is a good foursome to work with and we communicate well . We are pretty much the same age ( old Big Grin ) so we understand each other . It works .

I keep thinking you're someplace north of Sudbury, or Timmins.

I'd love to be there when you take it across the border!

TJ, that is one sweet piece of art work. I hope that your client runs some trolleys outside the stadium so that he can explain where the Dodgers got their name. The stadium was supposed to be surrounded by bedlam.

...the roof is on but not secured as Joe is now running the main buss wire around the underside of the roof so we can tie in all the lights .

I finished the upper deck in left,center and right fields ........looks like progress is slow on a day-to-day basis but the periodic pictures tell a different story .......progress-wise I would say " we're on second base and going for third " 357

We sent the customer a video on CD complete with a broadcast added from a real Dodgers game .

A very good question in this day and age , Don , so we consulted our legal beagle over at the lawfirm of Dewey,Cheatam and Howe , and he advised that if such a complaint was raised we plead not guilty by reason of selective compression Thumbsup

Joe ( guy in white shirt ) has a brother who is a very avid Z scaler and he is envisioning an EMPIRE inside the park .
