Re: [GSAS-Member] Storm Power Outages

Hey, how about a couple monthly auctions at the regular GSAS meetings since so 
many have lost fish, rather than waiting till march or april or whenever it is. 
Esp. for people with surplus fry and all. Nothing sadder than an empty tank 
swimming with memories. 
 
Yours truly lost a lot of fish at home when the house temp got below 50. I 
brought the survivors into work yesterday (Sunday) when power was restored 
here. Still without power in so-called rural Woodinville (strip malls, shopping 
districts, stores, but it's "rural" and may not get power back till 
Thursday).Matt
