You came to the vacuum convention in Louisville years ago and we enjoyed meeting you and you did a wonderful show about us. |

Wow honored, yours has been the best show on TV for decades running. Sorry to hear of your health issues. I remember you covering "Parrot Heads" (Jimmy Buffett fans) so this crowd should fit right in. I am local (NYC/San Diego) but new to the group, and collecting in general. I am sure others here far more versed and dedicated will jump at the chance to assist you. Nonetheless i will email you my contact info with "automatic washer" in the subject line. Thank you for your truly heart felt lighthearted reporting lo these many years. This post was last edited 05/27/2015 at 18:24 |

sorry to hear that you have Parkinson's Disease. Your pieces have been as enlightening as they have been amusing. Lawrence Prichard, Kent, Ohio |

Hi Bill, happy belated 70th to you, and sincere wishes for effective management of your health challenge going forward.
I honestly think that if our webmaster Robert (member ID is "unimatic1140") is willing, he could probably get a group together at his house. He has the most impressive collection and knows a good cross section of friends and fellow collectors who could participate.
I would love to see this piece become a reality and think I can safely say that as a group we are both flattered and honored to be your top priority.
Best of luck,
Ralph

and spoken to Bill Geist, and also have put Jerry Moparwash onto them to set something up. Bill said his producer will contacting me. I'll keep up to date with you all when I hear from them.
I can't get to Pittsburgh this year but I am hoping they will just do an interview with me about the club history since I hosted the very first Wash-In and coined that phrase back in the early 90's.
Hopefully this will all come together. Roberts would be the ideal place to have them film as he has so many restored machines and his basement looks the best out of all of our collections ! Exciting times in Applianceville ! |

Bill, I'm a big fan! I hope this works out. All the best in your retirement, but I know I will miss seeing you on Sunday Morning.
Our club members have a lot of different collections. Ted and Jeff do stoves and refrigerators as well. Justin and I do vintage TVs and radios. There are countless collections in this club of you need any other ideas. Lol |
