| kissy: | So, your hat wouldn't have done much good for you here? |

| PG: | Well, there are two problems with a lot of hair, as least as relates to FDF battles -- (1) the FDFs come in for a landing on the blue tape, touch down, get a little sticky stuff on their feet but not enough to hold them, take off, brush against some hair, and get caught there, and/or (2) the hair bounces around enough that it may touch the blue tape and then it's stuck there.
Note that I know this only by observation of those well endowed on the hair front (like Barb). The philosopher and I have nothing to worry about, though we would have some problems decades ago, when he apparently sported waist-length locks! |

| JanetT: | Without looking at your reply, I was able to identify everyone except Dan -- maybe because he doesn't orienteer much these days (outside of the Heartland region)?
You guys sure haven't changed much (except for Peter's hair). |

| jjcote: | I was pleased to be able to recognize the entire lineup. Swampfox definitely had more hair back then, too! |

| tomwcarr: | That must be the shortest WOC team ever! Peter is one of the taller athletes! Maybe once the guys lost their hair their bones decompressed and they sprang up. |

| PG: | When lining up for a group photo on sloping ground, wouldn't you expect me to be on the high side? I'm not stupid. |

| peggyd: | Bruce Wolfe is not short. Heather Williams isn't short, either. I think PG is right and we were standing on a slope.
Doesn't look to me like Mikell has a lot of hair in this pic. And I think I look like I'm 12. Dan M. doesn't orienteer much at all these days, even in the heartland. |

| jjcote: | No, he didn't have much hair in that picture. But he really doesn't have much hair now! And you don't look 12, you look about 17-19, I'd say. (And I guess you were really about 25.) |
