Fred

What is remarkable about Weyrich is that he was a far right winger in just about everything except his advocacy for public transport, and specifically electric public transport.  Very dichotomous!

As to Ken's note, did the cats hijack the fots?

  Sorry about that.   I missed it Ken.   For those newcomers, the first link shows Ken Josephson (left) and Fred Schneider (right) looking at slides in Ken's and Tracie's home in Las Vegas on Sunday June 13th.    Ken inherited a large assortment of slides  (I think it borders on a truck load) from Paul Weyrich, the transit lobbyist.   Ken was showing me stuff from Russia, Yugoslavia, Switzerland, Germany.   Eventually time ran out.    But it was great in many case because I could say, well this was taken on such and such street.....   It was a nice relaxed way to spend a Sunday.  

  Is this the chap, Ken?

  By the way, Ken,  the nice thing about the west is simply that one breaths more easily in the desert.   It is 95 degrees here today which would be unusually for much of Nevada.   But the humidity here isn't 10 to 12 percent like it is where you live.   It is probably a tad over 51%.   Makes it feel like it's well over 100 degrees.   The pollen doesn't help either.

  Here are the images you requested.

  Note in the last two that when the Fred is away, the cats will play:
