Thanks Bill.

Forest City is so close to our house and we are there so much it might as well be an extension of our house

There is a great story about Mr Dupont sending an ex wife a crate of mildly anesthetized alligators instead of antique furniture from her divorce settlement. Not sure if the family is sensitive about it though so left it out

I have one of E.E. DuPont's shooting trophies, probably not your friend. I'll post the date.

I have blessedly never been divorced, but I think I would have liked him.

Great tale Mills, but the version I heard was the crate was stuffed full of inebriated, divorce attorneys disguised as alligators. Six to one, half dozen to the other though far less billable hours your way!!
