J Labert:    …every single year including this year, without fail, someone always says: Hey!  Where’s Charlie?   Is he coming over on the Badger?   Is he stuck in Manitowac?   Do we need to go get him?     I found the question to be genuine but crazy as Charlie never gets stuck anywhere Charlie does not want to be.   In our group, there are stories of Charlie’s epic journeys to get to the EAA before opening day and his friendship with one of its founder, Tom Poberezney.
