Jack frequents the same restaurant that we do (and my father has for 27
years since retiring) for breakfast!

In a case of "small world" your father came up while I was talking to
another "ham" on a local repeater: one Jack Layton W9UK was telling us
about a packet on cable cars in Pittsburgh he got from someone, and
described the map from Hilton's "Cable Car in America" of the Pittsburgh
lines; I told him what book it was from, and he said he got the
information from your father.

So I guess in some twisted sense this is relevant to this list.
