[Nfbwv-talk] Fwd: [napub] Reminder of NAPUB conference call

Hi Karen!

I should be able to attend this, and I'm hoping to learn something from it.

I recently heard an Orbit quietly featured on our national radio station,
and I'm concerned about the noise it made even if the noise itself didn't
bother me.

Great that I can be better prepared by reading the Monitor, which I will be
doing tonight.

Nothing has ever been so long looked forward to, but the lack of news has
been more annoying to me than anything.

Cheers,
Dave
