Gesi, I was really excited to get those 2 emails yesterday about Ren!
We need to keep on task and motivated, especially now. Hopefully with some
team effort (and volunteers) we can get Ren to pay for itself. It really is
"Now or Never" if we want Ren to stay alive. (Lately tis little more than an
en garde stop....)
Thanks for your help, Gesi. :)
