He contacted me after the bite, and I spoke with him while he was recovering in the hospital (and a few times after). He moved out of the State at least 10 yrs ago - the only reason I know that is that he was gone before I left for AR. I'm not going to recant the full story as I recall it...you can accept it at face value, or disregard it.

As I was typing this, I thought of another person that might have some memories of this situation (he also got a call that night, and ended up taking possession of the cobra for some time). I'll shoot him an email.

And I think I can stop obsessing - a last name has come up from the depths, lol
