No kidding... one of my frat brothers was named Richard Kuntz.

On a wildly different off-topic note... This was the first day of really 
nice weather this season, so I skipped out to the local airport (I haven't 
flown in 10 years). Some guy there had just bought a marine skyraider the 
day before and was trying it out on the ramp. Most impressive to see the 
hydraulic wings unfolding. So of course I got bit by the flying bug again, 
I'll have to look up an instructor and get recertified. But to tie it in to 
on-topic (it's a reach), I came home and started pondering with the wife 
exactly what plane I could get that is economical to fly but has a payload 
weight of about 750 pounds with a 6 foot by 21 inch cargo spot....... ;)
