Hi James,

Thanks for letting us know... I hope things get better for you!

I would be (reluctantly) willing to carry the torch again like last year.  
I say reluctantly because I know I don't have the time to follow through 
all the publicity and donations.  Dave V is handling much of the publicity 
already, so I am not so worried.  So all that is left is donation 
coordination.  (James, if/while you're still available, could you give us 
a summary of where you were regarding any donors?)

We'll also need to get judges, but here I can assist (and bring in the 
help of other contacts).
