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

[Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com>]

Thanks Karen.  It's not like the guy is anonymous, acutally.  The "Someone 
on the Forum" is something added on the e-mail gateway (don't ask...long 
and horribly boring technical discussion), so it will be easy to reply to 
the thread if we get an answer.
