"Is this thing on?"

3M has just "let me go," so to speak. I have 50+ years' worth of memorabilia that I no longer want (can stand). It's not a lot of stuff at all, but if you know of a good caretaker, please let me know.

Thank you for your interest. Building 21 is still standing.

"...Lou Spiess was chair of the
3M Club during the war. He took
up a collection for 3M’s fighting
men in 1942.The club managed to
send each soldier about $5 with
a special holiday message.
The gifts reached most of
the men, but remarkably,
six letters were returned
to 3M in 1997 after moving
around the world for 55 years
in search of their recipients..."

Does anyone know if this is the same Lou Spiess who fathered Gerry, the WBL teacher who soloed his 10-foot "Yankee Girl" across the Atlantic in 1979 and the Pacific in 1981? Gerry was born in 1940.
