Hey Folks,

I'm back in town at least for a little while. FYI, I've been in NY for a
few weeks helping out my parents who were both hospitalized with
life-threatening illness, which I mention to say that, at the moment I will
only be able to help out for a couple of weeks, and will likely be back in
NY by the first of June.

Thanks Marcus for getting the ball rolling on all this. I will come by and
help out on Sunday and am going to coordinate doing a door shift with
Dasha.

Big hugs,
Kazoo
