I’ll definitely ask Donna how she is handling publicity. They say there’s no such thing as bad publicity, and it would seem we could get good pub out of this one.

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.
