Chicagoland: Help Unload Bill Leininger Sunday, Redistribute Karma

Bill Leininger needs help. He is a guy who has not only helped moved me many times, but for years has showed up almost any time an SF fan in Chicago was moving. He has accumulated more Moving Karma than anyone else I know. If Bill decided to move to Mars, I would feel obliged to help him.

As I write this, he is piloting a truckload of his worldly possessions up from Mississippi.

He expects to arrive in Mokena, Illinois tomorrow, Sunday afternoon, at a time which cannot yet be predicted with accuracy.

Upon arriving there, he plans, for reasons not encompassed by my Visualization of the Cosmic All, to unload his stuff into a storage locker. Then he will return his rental truck. All must be accomplished before Monday morning.

If you can help, leave a comment, or e-mail me your phone number (higgins at f n a l dot g o v). I will try to notify you when Bill is getting close, and provide you with directions.

We did have to keep each other from browsing the books...

No kidding. Bill actually moved bookcases into the storage locker and then we started shelving books in the bookcases. Soon it was just like being in a library. Well, a very poorly decorated library, with metal walls.

It took rigid discipline to keep from browsing.
