Arctic Slope Telephone, or ASTAC. We had the local phone service and served 7 other native villages up on the slope. Left in 87 when the big crunch hit. Who were you with?

I still have my "Property of Deadhorse Correctional Facility" t-shirt. Been a long time since I saw the place. Did you see those pictures of "Toby" the grizzly that got into one of the camps last week. They actually shot him up on the 2nd floor of one of the camps.

I've dealt with those ASTAC boys and Flossie for years. I've worked for Brooks Range Supply, Conam, Alaska Petroleum Contractors, and SKW. The last place I worked was over in Nuiqsut during the Alpine development, and then on the village water and sewer project. What a mess.

I didn't see any pictures of Toby, but I read about it in the Clarion. Saw names of people I know being interviewed in relation to the bear being killed. I can't wait for my buddy that works security for Phillips/Conoco to get home this week. He always has amazing stories.
