    I thought Beautiful Beamer was an old Stephen Foster song...  cb


  Naw, it was probably named after its "DISCOVERER's" CAR, after peeling it off the radiator.**

  Gone are the days when their names were sung and played.
  Gone our beloved from the open fields away.
  Gone from this Earth to a better land I know.
  I hear their gentle voices calling, "Bold? Knack? ... Show?"

  The above is 'borrowed' from a Foster which some Connecticut Yankees may recall. 

  Best wishes,
  Doug Dawn
  Monterrey, Mexico

  **Or maybe it was Jerry Brown's loving nickname for Linda Ronstadt when she was hot, come to think of it MOON BEAMER is a much better name for the Celestially Beautiful URANIA SKIPPER (a.k.a. Rainbow Skipper), lest the name become JADED, now that it has been claimed as sighted just once in the U.S.A., to mention the sometimes bluish-hue this skipper might take on depending on the lighting.
