Re: Speakers that want more gigs

Richard: In January I gave two lectures to the Western Nurserymen in Kansas 
City and, like you, were treated like royalty, including my city driver who 
turned out to be an expert in the hydroculture of tomatoes. Not only that 
but all the folks I met were astounded at the politics in this country and 
were sad to see so many parts of the prairie replaced by six- to eight-lane 
highways with a decided lace of bus routes! Regards, Peter
