[CapChapOhio] update on project mainstream and channel 4<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>Hi<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to write all of you
and give a update on where things has ended up with us and Project Mainstream. I
personally am not happy with the final result. I would like to have the
floor for at least five to ten minutes at the upcoming meeting this Saturday to
explain in more details. The news story was aired this evening on the six p.m
news. I am sorry for not getting this out sooner, I found out on lunch to day
around 02:30. Some of you maybe are a where since DR. Smith told some
individsuals. Dr. Smith if you happen to watch the news this evening, I would
like to know what your thoughts were regarding what they aired? After speaking
with Steve this afternoon, I feel like mainstream tried to make themselves out
to be the better person in this situation. At the same time as a organization of
individsuals there is room for improvement on our end as far as proving our
facts and evidence. As I said earlier I would like to have the floor for five to
ten minutes to go in more details regarding my last couple of statements. I had
a couple individsuals ask me for a copy from the news, I am told if we missed
that story this evening we can access it online. I hope this helps, talk to
everyone Saturday.<o:p></o:p></P>
