Re: Good News!!

["Janet Smith" <ypauls@sti.net>]

You are very kind, I try my best.

FYI to all - I have a set of CD programs for Dallas Iris Society -
they deserve them since they are doing 2 conventions in a row!  I
shall hand them over at the convention. I am sure I will catch up
with someone.

My way of helping AIS say thanks!

Janet
