No you never got away with it. Right after Sons of Lucas was suggested
I counter suggested Daughters of Lucas and some wonderful peacemaking
soul came up with Scions before I could make it a four letter acronem

Back when Scott had a MGB that lived in the garage because for various
reasons he could not seem to keep it drivable for longer than a couple
months at a time. Eventually he finally sold the MGB and bought a Alfa
roadster. I understand he is active in the Alfa circles. About a year
or so ago he moved North. I believe to the Salem - Portlandish area.
