Have any of you checked out <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curt_Weldon">his wikipedia entry</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> yet? It'll make your head spin if you haven't.<br>An interesting leg-up:<br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>His efforts as mayor were geared towards reviving his town against the violent <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Pagans Motorcycle Gang</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->.<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>Pagans Motorcycle Club</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> was formed by Lou Dobkins (<!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>a biochemist at the National Institute of Health</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END-->) in 1959 in Prince George's County, Maryland.
