        Did you receive it yet?

        I like the idea if it is ok with Jack.

        Whoever is going to do this, please let us know so it doesn't get
done many times or perhaps not done at all.

        Good idea. We should make it a practice to help organizations
that help us.

        Eric, I was talking to Marge Anderson yesterday when she and Phil
came to the Erie Aquarium Society Auction and later visited my Anableps.
She was unaware of the Management Committee and our round robin mailing.
Please add her to the distribution list for the MC.

                                        Thanks, Bob.
