Re: [AGA-mcm] Fw: Footage/Images of Iron Aquascaper

[Larry Lampert <l_lampert@yahoo.com>]

Well yeah that is what I said first go round. But then I decided to call her 
just to see what is up. Are they desperate for content umm yeah that is why 
they are surfing the internet. But why should we care.

The show is about the extreme lemgths people will go to create an animal home. 
I explained to her that the aquascaping contest is not about that and I did let 
her know that we don't even put fish in the tanks.

she still wants to look at what we have, obviously there are no guarantees they 
will use it or even if they do who knows what will remain after editing. The 
bottom line is do we want to see or just cut bait. I am game for either.

Thanks,

Larry
