[mou] Expense changes

[Randy Frederickson]

Friends-

Several people have contacted me and suggested I extend the expense deadlin=
e
to include monies from March, being the owls do not seem to be in any hurry
to leave.  This seems like a logical thing to do (are those groans of
ecstasy I am hearing?), as it would extend our "window" to a full 6 months.

For all those who have so conscientiously sent expenses, thanks.  If I coul=
d
make a suggestion to just hold your March info until the end of the month;
it would perhaps be easier for all of us.  Of course I am happy to
accommodate any way you want to submit, as long as you keep those e-mails
coming.

We currently have over 190 responses totaling over $130,000.  Fran and I ar=
e
working on some other angles to make our figures more accurate and
meaningful.  (The registry for the caf=E9 in Cotton contains about 300 names
that we can cross reference to see % of respondents.  All Minnesota guides
will be contacted to solicit feedback and help- when things slow down for
them).

Thanks again,

Randy Frederickson
