Member (of the old forum) Grumpy Phil was working on a Mars Rover project I think.

Robert is referring to another Phil....his username was grumpyphil, and was around here a few years back. He was a really interesting addition to the forum as he had worked as a New York pro in the 60s...big cameras, & studios, camera loading crew and the glitzy life. He moved away from photography as a profession and was involved with precision machine parts.

He was quite a character, I wish he was still around!
