[stylist] Vejas on this list is a surfer RE: Trying to domoreresearch. Anyone know any surfers?

[Eve Sanchez]

I just got my computer back from the Geek Squad and may have missed any
questions you may have sent, but as I said before I used to surf quite a
bit, long board, and would be willing to help. Also, when I first learned
to surf I did so tandemly with a man that had once surfed in the Olympics.
It was an Olympic sport only briefly and I do not recall the years. I do
not know if I will be much help, but I do have the experience and am
willing. Eve Sanchez
