credits for the recent meetings. We had a long discussion about the finances.
The status is fairly good, being in the black almost $58K. However, there was
concern about the availability of those funds. Paul Cefola took an action to
get with Jim Kirkpatrick to verify the dollars that we have in our account, and
to ascertain whether or not those funds are actually available for our use.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
