Re: [AGA-sc] [AGA-conheads] [AGA-Member] Request regarding Tropica for AGA 2006 convention (fwd)

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

Hi Erik,

(note, I moved this from the Conhead list to the BOD list in case my 
comments are deemed politically incorrect<g>)

I'll forward it to Troels and Claus.  It is _SO_ unlike Claus not to answer 
people's questions that either he's away, and the guy just hasn't given him 
a chance to respond, or the guy is a known PITA that the Tropica folks just 
don't respond to any more.  (there are a couple of those<g>)  I don't know 
how Tropica is supposed to respond to him, though, if he doesn't post his 
name.

Karen
