[Guest guest]

Hi Carole,

Let's not sell them short yet -- let's give them a chance to come forward

with the information they have been silent about for way tooo long. Now is

their chance, and if I can locate their Association, etc. and members names,

I will publish it so we can contact them personally!

Blessings always,
