I've been behind in my reading! A warm welcome to Andrew, Betha and Erin. Hope I didn't miss anyone. And I love the hilarious comments now in email form rather than in the chat during the show. You sure are a fun bunch that I feel priveleged to be a part of. I finally downloaded all of these interviews Maurice, now I just gotta find the time to listen. Can't wait!
Sincerely,
Stephanie Zimmerman Training Coordinator
