> I did eventually manage to get in contact with Mel, but I scared him away, unfortunately. That's a story for another day... :-/

Tell us today! Tell us! Please?

I third Stratoscope's and jacquesm's request for that story.

Also interesting to note: that picture you found is from his first month on the job, yes? The "Welcome" section at the bottom of the PDF claims he just joined in July in "Engineering--Commercial," and the text above the picture says that the three instructors pictured (Hazlett, Behr, Kaye) will transfer to Royal-McBee payroll "as announced in the July Librazette." The July edition claims Hazlett, Behr, and Fred Flannel are the engineers to be transferred.

Oh wow. Well consider this another day! That's amazing.

Please do tell us about what he said!

I did upvote, but that doesn't communicate our desire to hear the story. This is one of those rare situations where a "me too" post serves a legitimate purpose.
