  Hi Diana,
   
  I don't think the BOD ever got your message about 
  that Singapore catalog.  I am assuming this is the "Oriental Aquarium" 
  catalog?  I certainly don't remember seeing it.
   
  I'm so glad that they have contacted you!  
  Claus brought me a copy of the catalog at the convention, and I'd been meaning 
  to try to track down a contact for it.  But between family life and TAG, 
  I hadn't gotten around to it.  I definitely think it is worth offering to 
  our members.  I think it's a big improvement on the old one, and the old 
  one was worth-while.
   
  I would suggest that we keep offering the Tropica 
  catalog, and ad the Oriental catalog back into the line-up.
   
  As you can see, I've cc'd the BOD, so we can get 
  an answer from everyone on this.  David will have to tell us what we can 
  afford!
   
  Thanks for the kind words on the magazine, I'm 
  glad you're enjoying it!
   
  Karen

    Dear Karen,
        Recently, I saw a copy of 
    the Singapore catalog.  I thought it was very nice- real photos of 
    plants and not a bad price.  I've got a few months worth of the Tropica 
    catalog left and will need to order more of it or get something else (or get 
    both).
        If the AGA has the money, 
    I'd like to order 50 copies of the Singapore catalog.  I'd suggest that 
    we offer Hua $500 (see her letter below) plus shipping 
    costs.  I think that we could sell it for $20-25.  If she says yes 
    fine, if not we can pay Dave $8.50 for more Tropica catalogs.
        Hope you are doing 
    well.  The TAG magazine looks great!
     
    Diana

      Dear Hai,
          I got no response to 
      letting AGA officers know about your book.  It could be that the AGA 
      has spent all their money on other projects.  
          Sorry.  Please feel 
      free to contact other members of the organization.
