[oak perl] Giveaways?

[George Woolley]

Kester,
Thanks for thinking about giveaways.

I suggest you bring the catalog to the meeting
so we can find out what interests people.
It will be fun to look at, if nothing else.

I'm not clear how this is likely to lead to giveaways,
but we can talk about that at the meeting.
(Hey, it's OK if it doesn't.)
George
