LI Pumpkin - a little more complicated than that, but you're right - not a grower, yet. Just work with the big guys to promote the contest in my regular paying job.
Ragweed season is a bear for those who suffer; and if you don't have allergies, come to KY and you'll have them for the first time in your life.
Wayne, John or Frank - let me know everyone's home town. The writer for the PR will want that info and I can get it out.
