Re: [AGA-sc] [Fwd: no room for anymore TAGs]

If it would help, and we are at the point of giving them away, I can take 
however many you want to get rid of and distribute them to the stores I sell 
fish to -- about 18 stores in New England. I can't do anything until after 
the first of the year, as I am still in a back brace from surgery that I had 
in September, but I get sprung right after Xmas, and can take them then.
Just an idea -- would rather see them go to stores and potential plant 
growing hobbyists than end up in a trash barrel.
