Dear Vern - Hello again. I had about given up on hearing from you again. I wrote to you about a month ago after attending a meeting of this support group where among other items your video Lamps Light was shown. Since then we (a volunteer commitee) have put considerable time and effort into updating the member list and compiling a program that hopefully will draw some interest and attendence. We have sent out an extensive mailing to the members outlining the program and including a basic questionaire all of which appears to be sparking interest. I agree that getting together for 2 hours a month is not enough time to establish acquaintainces(sp) especially if time is used for business and/or a guest speaker. Along this line of thinking one of the first items I am going to push for is picnic/potluck get togethers at parksites or other suitable locations on the mid-week between the regular meetings. This would provide an opportunity to get better acquainted and share in some activities. Anyway I'll keep in touch. Maybe in the future we can set up a yearly conference and have all the local support groups participate......ED H <AOL, *P, I-Net> Oh, I just re-read your letter with the offer to come to one of our meetings as a guest speaker. Yes, we'd welcome you and Sue, too, of course. Our meetings are scheduled every 2nd Wednesday of the month from 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM
