Re: [AGA SC] deja vu anyone?
Thanks but I already had seconds.
Actually, I mistakenly read "ACA" as "AGA" and it didn't
seem to matter that I did, except that I was more puzzled
than usual by the folk's names.
Maybe conventions are the only way to really raise money in
the aquatic hobbies and we should just do a chain of them
-- one each month in a diff local so no one has to travel
far. A traveling road show like a crafts fair.
If anyone takes seriously what I just said, then its not
deja vu, I'm just having halucinations.
Thanks, Erik.
