Lloyd and all:

I am heartened by the spreading of the word regarding our nets, and by the 
new check-ins we get every so often.

I keep thinking back on when we started these nets when I was out in 
Colorado, and I am glad  that the nets have maintained themselves as well as 
they have.

I am still surprised, for example, about my e-mail on Saturday regarding the 
40-meter east coast mid west round table, and how quickly people responded, 
even with the very short notice and slightly changed frequency.

To me, it all shows that what we are doing is serving a purpose.
