   Hello, Ray.   
     I just happened to run across this old email online. You don't know me, but   
   I used to come see you at the Jolly Coachman and maybe some of the Omaha   
   coffee houses back in the early 60s. You're one of he people who turned me on   
   to live folk music. I    
   have devoted myself to that for the rest of my life, doing traditional music   
   for a living since 1971. I hope you are doing well and want to thank you for   
   what you did for me. Another question did you also know Dave Hammill (sp?) who   
   used to play those    
   same coffee houses, a great banjo player.

   Halminiack (as I recall) ran it for several years, eventually moving it to   
   Omaha, where I also sang    
   several times. Ted and I didn't sing together, but we shared the billing when   
   the coffee house first opened, and had a good friendship.
