I heard the news late... Very disappointed to hear of Rudi's passing. He was quite the gentleman, and as was noted previously, a man of many talents and hobbies. His manual site was instrumental in my restoration project, as was his one on one guidance.
Time is a precious thing. We all have only a small amount of it on this earth. As such, I always appreciate anybody that wants to spend their time helping me. Thank you for the countless hours you gave to me, walking me through everything a newbie needed to know, and then some.
Take care, my friend.
