It was a great pleaure to have Warren join us time to time on this 
forum. Always interesting, and always a source of great
trivia that most did not know about, hence making us better informed.
To Allan and Warren, Jr, the Ingles add their condolances, nad our 
wished for the good memories to wash away the sad ones.
Another elder of the tribe goes off to a better session with his equals.
