Thank you, Chuck, for the thoughtful words of appreciation. And speaking of
volunteers...

The ONLY REASON I keep working for NANFA, putting in gosh knows how many
hours a week, is because of all the other volunteers. If it weren't for
them, I wouldn't care, I wouldn't be here, I'd be doing something else, and
I'd be a lesser person for it. A t-shirt here, a convention there, a
collecting trip, an article, a web page, stuffing and mailing convention
ballots, and on and on -- individually they're all important, and
collectively they make a difference. There are givers and there are takers,
and it is my good fortune to know and volunteer alongside the many givers
who make NANFA work.

Thank you all so much.

Chris
