Joe, that sounds about right. A few years ago, Schmit and I met Col. Cooper when he spoke at my gun club. His wife is a lovely person indeed, and we also met his daughter Lindy, another fine mind.Joe Forte said:I for one am very honored to have met him. Actually got to have a good talk with him. He was very approachable. His wife is very nice also. My friend said to him "It's very nice to have such a knowledgable person as yourself here. " I couldn't resist, I said " Yes, and it was very nice of you to bring along your husband!" We had a good laugh about that. :lol:
