I don't know why we are stuck on the Logo
The Logo was created by Liz Arum. It' not a big deal.
It's a simple Logo at best.
Joe made it 6 feet tall for the Expo.
Email Liz or joeg or even Marco, who has seemed to fallen off the face of
the earth temporarily.
Liz is lizarum-at-yahoo.com
Marco et al ae on the website
PLEASE use hangout. I want people to see that we work TOGETHER as a group.
Ruben
