Re: AIS web site

I get the list in digest form, which means I'm always reading day-old
messages, so someone may already have cleared up this misunderstanding.

Unless I missed something somewhere, it wasn't the IRIS-L that got the
publicity; it was the AIS home page which, or course, is AIS sanctioned.  

I haven't yet had a killing frost, and last time I was at home in the
daylight (I come and go in the dark for the rest of the winter--I hate it)
I had BROTHER CARL, SEPT. BUTTERCUP, and I BLESS in bloom.  IMMORTALITY
and BLESSED AGIAN were pregnant, but I doubt they will make it before
frost.  We have had an unusually warm spell, so I'm anxious to check on
them in the daylight Saturday to see if they might make it.
