(...) Cool. I am just guessing here, but I don't *think* its a 'Foundation' in the formal sense of the word (like organization, etc). More of a foundation, like a footing, basis, for dealing with LTCs. I could be totally off base, but this is what I (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.trains)
