Well, Indy is a straight shot from here up I-65; Greencastle is a bit
to the west of Indy. Going up Indiana 60 to Indiana 37, then to
Bloomington, then up US 231 to Greencastle, just a nice day trip.

But Cliff wants it, so Cliff gets it (hopefully)...

Ah, another Hoosier.... ok, I live in Clarksville, down here in
Kentuckiana. But I really don't want any more big iron anyway
until I can get my Prime 2455 running again. I was midway through
a project of transferring files from magtape to a PC when the PSU
died. Additionally, I'm seriously thinking of running it as a
space heater.
