Here is a link on our new website that lists previous GPC Steering Committee Members. As you can see we are in need of filling in some blanks, so any accurate infomation is appreciated.

It was Hugh Wiberg I believe.I think there might have been some info in the first langevin book about. Someone who knows all the facts should chime in on why and how the GPC came to be.

Hugh Wiberg was a founding member of the GPC (Great Pumpkin Commonwealth) along with Howard Dill.

Mike Green (nut tree)was one of the original three founding members. Dill joined the committee late 1993 or early 1994. All I have is the last name Dill not sure if it was Danny or Howard
