Re: [AGA SC] Free T-shirts

["Karen Randall" <krandall@rdrcpa.biz>]

Well, I love your slogan.  But other than that, the whole thing leaves my
head spinning... Something that happens often enough without any help from
you, thanks.<g>

I would be happy to do another piece of artwork for the convention if they'd
like.  Beyond that, I'll leave the decision(s) to who ever wants to do the
work involved.
