This page was supposed to be private but I see it turning up on a Google Search. This is just me brainstorming ideas for the web site. It is not a plan or anything — I haven’t reviewed this with Garold or the board. On the other hand, if you’ve happened upon this page, I would love some feedback, so leave a reply at the bottom. Thanks –Bill Duncan
