[nagdu] Tell the whole truth

[Larry D. Keeler]

It does sound like this school certainly needs some attention.  Given the 
way it sounds like its opperating.  I for example, haven't been bugged once! 
I usually look forward to seeing our representative at tne Ann Arbor Vendor 
Fair.  I'm not sure I'd like associating with a school whom I was sort of 
intimidated by!
