Hi all ~
As I understand it, Fred was interviewed but didn't make the final
show probably because of time constraints. It was a well-done segment
and I could have watched a two hour special on this topic. If you
haven't seen the converted 16mm segment on the Capetown to Cairo
Caravan, here's the link:

Now that looks like an adventure, a 221 day adventure.
