  Neo Wrestling Presents: Great Gama   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Gama began training as a wrestler at age five, and at age nine he placed sixteenth in a tournament featuring four hundred teenagers, only finishing sixteenth because he pulled out due to exhaustion.
Gama was perhaps the greatest wrestler in the world while on his feet going for take downs, particularly with his "dobi paat" shoulder throw, but could not match that efficiency on the ground.
Gama was publicly very proud of being a legitimate wrestler, and was also said to be an honest, good man in private, so the chances of him working a bout seem slim, but then again, the same stories have been told about Frank Gotch and its likely he worked a number of bouts.

The GAMA EPS Task Force began by evaluating the existing relevant standards and determined that there was not a General Aviation industry standard appropriate for the problem of converting millions of pages of legacy (both ATA and non-ATA conforming publications and from source documents existing either electronically or in paper).
The less stringent requirements of the GAMA EPS will allow the vast majority of the existing General Aviation publications to be cost-effectively converted from paper to electronic media using currently available technology in one of the electronic publication options identified in this specification.
