Dear Don,
I am not a member of the Socred list so only became aware of your
response because Bill Ryan forwarded it to Ownership.
I -- and many others in the UK including the Global Table -- am most
certainly aware of your excellent record and particularly appreciate your
regular electronz bulletin and your efforts to build co-operation.
I do feel that -- at last-- we are beginning to win. Yes, we'll keep
in touch.
