I will pass this on to the board. I'm sure there is something we can work
out.

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
