2000 President Ray Crowe
/I have had years of experience with many of the sciences which steered me in the direction of writing a newsletter, the Track Record, and this book combines many of those disciplines. A sample of my interests and memberships should give the reader a brief glimpse of my background: collector of minerals, rocks and fossils, Fellow of the Geological Society of the Oregon Country, Lepidopterists' Society, Oregon Archeological Society, Missoula Floods Chairman, U.S. Weather Bureau, paper mill quality control tech, U.S. Air Force, antique and book shop owner; CRT technician. amateur astronomy, computer programming, Weather Bureau observer, stampand coin collector/dealer, and Director Western Bigfoot and International BigfootSociety. Hated school, loved reading-antique and used book shop owner, but did complete a year at Portland State University and completed several military courses, some now quite dated like electronics (what is a vacuum tube? Kids ask).or slide rule calculating.
A wonderful wife, Theata, shared many of the fun experiences of chasing butterflies, collecting fossils, or being hostess at a meeting of Bigfoot enthusiasts.
Ray’s 2000 field trip was of the Ice Age Floods as recorded in the geology of eastern Washington.
