[nfbwatlk] Washington Seminar Representation for 2009

[Kristina Lawrence]

Mike,

While I know that some of us are disappointed in not being able to
attend, I think you are showing good stewardship of the affiliate
money. Keep up the good work. We couldn't ask for a finer
representative in D.C.. I look forward to your updates!

Since I am a member of NFB's R&D Committee which meets just prior to the Washington Seminar and since my airfare will be paid  to attend this meeting, the most logical decision is that I should be that representative.

If we can raise sufficient funds, we can send more people in 2010.
