[GSAS-board] RE: Interview request for Seattle Public Radio 7/25?

Hi Kristi,

Thank you for your inquiry. I feel that I had better be sure that we were your intended recipients. It really is quite common for people to mistake our group (GREATER Seattle Aquarium Society) with the other, much larger and famous, Seattle Aquarium Society. Our group is made up of home hobbyists that have a love for mainly fresh-water aquariums. The other group is, of course, affiliated with the Seattle Aquarium on Pier 59 on the Waterfront. Our two groups are totally unrelated and have very different focuses and different levels of expertise.

If we truly were your intended recipients, then we can check with some of our more experienced members to see if any of them would be interested in your offer for an on-air interview. Please let me know; and, thanks again.

Rick Rose

GSAS President

Subject: Interview request for Seattle Public Radio 7/25?

Hi Rick, Susan, Paul, and Sandu,

I see that the Greater Seattle Aquarium Society’s staff is on summer break, but I am wondering if I could talk to someone about having an aquarium expert in to our studio at KUOW Public Radio next Monday, July 25th from 10-11 am PDT to talk about fish?

This has been a topic we have been interested in for some time, but without the experts necessary to join us. We were hoping someone from your organization could help us round out a small panel of aquarium fish experts.

If one of you could give me a call or email back as soon as you get a chance (pesky deadlines) I would really appreciate the help.

Thanks so much,

Kristi Remkus
