Leeper > ...ihnp4!mtgzz!ecl > (or ihnp4!mtgzy!ecl) First, I want to thank Evelyn for posting this. I wanted to but hadn't had the time. I'm going to be working on the committee appointed by the L-5 Board of Directors which is going to oversee this effort. I'd appreciate it if, as Evelyn mentioned, people would write their Congresscritters and urge them not only to support the bill but also to co-sponsor it. At last count, we had approximately 80 co-sponsors and were aiming for 150 before the bill hits the House floor. The effort on the part of L-5 hasn't really been organized yet. If you would like to send a contribution, do indicate that it's for the Memorial Fund and not just a general donation to L-5. I'll be happy to answer questions (if I can!) by mail, and if there's sufficient interest, I'll post updates to the digest every now and then.
