Phyllis Nevsimal

Phyllis lives in Yorkville Illinois. She and Rich are both retired and spend their time staying out of each others way or chasing each other around! They pretty much do whatever seems important at the time. They have four grandchildren in Pa. and their son is still growing up(they think).

Sandy Hastings

Sandy got married - I was getting worried she wouldn't find someone who could measure up to her standards - but she did! They had a GREAT reception on a riverboat in Minneapolis. Eve and I and the kids managed to attend - it was GREAT! Sandy and Freeman live in California and have a place on Lake Tahoe.

Tom Mack

It is based on a proprietary system that the customer subscribes to, as opposed to purchases. We install, configure, manage, monitor and maintain the solution 24x7x365. Some of the additional services are LAN to LAN VPN's, proxy servers, database server hosting etc. Reach Tom at Email or at work:

Bruce Holmstadt

Single, no kids yet, and looking for Mrs. Right. Currently I am looking for work in the area around and between Minneapolis / St. Paul Minnesota and Eau Claire / Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. This area is home for me. Recently separated from the Navy after completing 8 years of service, rising to Petty Officer First Class (E-6) during that short time, and advancing to the point of becoming the technical expert and supervisor of my portion (30) of over 100 subordinates in charge of the maintenance of F-14 and F-18 aircraft assemblies as well as their (VAX/VMS -based) computer-controlled automated test equipment. (I have always been thankful of my UNIX experience at MSS, it has prepared me for so many things.) During my time in the service I also worked on helicopters (H-3's, same type as the big ones you see the Prez flying around in) helping to provide transportation for senators, other VIP's (foreign royalty), regular passengers, mail and cargo. I was based in Virginia Beach, VA, and deployed to the Persian gulf (not during, but after the war) and Norway, and not always on boats. (715)-647-2062

Cory Coulter

Cory moved to New Jersey after the sale of MSS. When ECCS offered me the transfer, I had guessed that it was transfer or get laid off. After four year ('95), the opportunity came up to transfer to Atlanta.  When ECCS decided to drop systems sales and become a storage company, I decided to bail.  I was contracting with the Lucent Cable Plant in Norcross when they found out I had another job offer and made one themselves.  A year later, a former ECCS sales rep, Steve Zembrzuski approached me.  He had formed Intelligent Technology Systems ( www.intelligenttech.com ) and needed a Systems Engineer.  He finally offered me enough and I have been there for coming up on eight years.
It looks like you are doing some interesting things with NetGain.  I enjoyed your fishing pictures. I see that you still have a sense of humor and are enjoying life. I don't think I ever had the opportunity to say "thank you".  You taught me a lot and it has helped quite a bit over the years. If you ever make it down to Atlanta, you had better look me up.

Lyrics

Your Wildest Dreams
Justin Hayward

Once upon a time
Once when you were mine
I remember skies
Reflected in your eyes
I wonder where you are
I wonder if you
Think about me
Once upon a time
In your wildest dream

Once the world was new
Our bodies felt the morning dew
That greets the brand new day
We couldn't tear ourselves away
I wonder if you care
I wonder if you still remember
Once upon a time
In your wildest dreams

And when the music plays
And when the worlds are
Touched with sorrow
When the music plays
I hear the sound
I had to follow
Once upon a time

Once beneath the stars
The universe was ours
Love was all we Knew
And all I knew was you
I wonder if you know
I wonder if you
Think about it
Once upon a time
In your wildest dreams

And when the music plays
And when the words are
Touched with sorrow
When the music plays
And when the music plays
I hear the sound
I had to follow
Once upon a time

Once upon a time
Once when you were mine
I remember skies
Mirrored in your eyes
I wonder where you are
I wonder if you
Think about me
Once upon a time
In your wildest dreams
