[nfbmi-talk] ornaments on sale press release

[joe harcz Comcast]

Terry,

I think you should bring this fact up at the public comment section of the 
MCRS meeting coming up again in a bit, along with lack of access to 
information in a timely and accessable manner from the agency or any other 
part of state government.

Just a suggestion for the record.

Joe
