Ken, although I've done some work on it, I'm still trying to piece together
the corporate history of what became the K line. Mike Spoor mentions the
number of name changes and buy-outs that produced it in his In Color #3
book. If you had time to look into that, I'd appreciate it. However, I'll
take help from any quarter and just having the title gives me a good place
to check my facts.
