Far as publicity is concerned, the Wichita Eagle has given this case some good press.  There is a good rpepoter with the Topeakka Citol-Journal whose name I’m going to give Rob, Tom and Donna. His name is Andy Marseau or Marso.  He himself has a very interesting history.  He got meningitis while a journalism student and had to do a lot of rehab afterwards.  He was a shining star in the school of journalism.  He started at a small-town newspaper as a sports reporter (like many beginners do) and worked really hard to be able to work out accommodations for himself; his hands were majorly affected by the fallout from the meningitis.  Anyway, he is a really excellent reporter. And I’l pass the word along.  Thanks!  I’ll ask Rob to contact you.  Hope you’re having a great summer.

Cheers!

Susan

Hi All,

I am available to drive monday and wednesday if a driver is still needed. My toyota can carry 4 passengers. This sounds like an important case, has there been any publicity that you know of?

Good evening all,

 

I spoke with Donna today. First, the state affiliate will help to pay for a driver at the rate of 43 cents per mile, whether we hire a driver or if one takes a bus to Topeka. The trial is expected to run most of the week, but there will be no reimbursement for overnight lodging in Topeka. To that end, I have contacted and been refused by a potential driver, so I am still looking for a driver. So far 3 individuals including myself have expressed interst in attending.

 

Secondly, Donna said she would especially like NFB Kansas to show a visible presence on Monday and Wednesday; Monday being the opening of the trial and Wednesday being the day Donna is scheduled to testify as an expert witness.

 

Please be sure to let me know by tomorrow if you would like to attend with transportation via carpool by tomorrow night at the latest so I can be sure to have enough room for those who want to attend.

 

Best regards,

Rob
