Hi Chuck:

Nancy was Senk's girlfriend back in the day. I thought Ramwell stretched back that far, but obviously you'd be in a position to know.

For Christmas, 1979, I received a box of matches which might have included all of Nancy's and EKW's work through then. A few months later I recorded a match Nancy and Mike played, and on meeting her, informed her I "have all your matches!" I was told later it was a faux pas, as they were unpurchased photocopies. (I think the stack was close to two reams of paper; Elliott wrote in a tiny hand, and could often fit matches onto one sheet, but there woud have been only some hundreds of matches at most. My earlier estimate of one thousand might be too high.

I think I still have them somewhere in my storage unit in Tucson.

Best,

Jake
