[nfbmi-talk] That Twenty Million

Mon Feb 28 20:43:23 UTC 2011

Hi Tonya,

Sometimes, it takes a long time to get results.  Nothing will change if we
don't keep trying.  Thanks for hanging in there.

Warm Regards,

Fred

Okay, so. Okay you know that I can't attend the meeting, you know that.
Thank you for putting out the phone number.  I will call them and even
though that when we you know trying to bring up the news line and what not.
I was told to call in to the news line, and give suggestions you know about
different things.  As soon as I did that. I even expressed my opinion about
what needs to be changed and what not.  Well like I said, you can give them
changes till they are blue in the the face. But yet who is going to
reinforce them, and make sure that they are being done. I will do it again.
The last time I did it, nothing happened, but I will do it again.
