I know this is way off topic. But was hoping that any Canadian Modelers maybe able to help me locate a friend there. Have lost contact info. His name is Paul Bird. Maybe in the London Ontario area.

Thanks!

Age?
Still working or retired?
In which type of business would he possible be active?
Any additional clue will be useful to narrow down the search.
