Bill-
Thank you for letting me know. My sincere apologies for having missed you, don't know how I did that, I even have pix of your flies (well, one of them). Will update the list as soon as I get through culling all the emails that stacked up.

Subject: [PERPS] Hey You GuysOkay. Despite being flat on my **s the past two days with a terrible cold I have been diligently working on getting the swap finished up. If you will kindly go to the Perpsite www.geocities.com/jodemior2000 you will find two links "Mailing List-1" and "Mailing List-2". Mailing list one has the addresses for the tyers in the eastern US and central US. Mailing list two has the addresses for tyers in the western US and overseas tyers.
PLEASE! Check the lists for your name and address. If you are not on there and you know I have your flies, let me know ASAP, I have not been functioning at 100% capacity the last couple of days. In fact I took two days off from work and have been doing the swap stuff a few minutes at a time when I get out of bed for some tea and Nyquil. (waa-waa)<G>. If your address is wrong, please sing out and I will get it changed before the mail out.
Perhaps a word or twenty of explanation is due regarding the circulation of the boxes. First of all, I tried to keep each group approximately the same size. Second, I tried to envision the shortest route within each group once the boxes started circulating. This isn't necessarily the closest point to me when I mail them out but hopefully will make things quicker as the boxes go from hand to hand. The trend of the boxes is generally from West to East and North to South. I tried to be logical in routing them within a region, but didn't do things like check mileages within a state and so on. If anyone is unhappy with the arrangements, I am sorry. By its nature someone has to be the last one on the list within a group.
Please make copies of the lists for your own use. I will make copies to go with the boxes. If people will let me know when they receive and forward the boxes, I will try to track them on the Perpsite. I'll make copies to post to the Perplist, but not right now, cuz I'm going back to bed.
Rix Benson, your flies arrived today. Took pix and put them in the boxes. If I receive anymore flies in the morning mail I will include them. I will try to get them on their way tomorrow, Friday the 24th. Unfortunately, tomorrow is a very busy day. I must go back to work (not too much rest for the wicked) and also must appear in court as a witness, which means standing around waiting and then not being called. If I can't get them in the mail, they will definitely and absolutely be in the morning mail on Monday. Sorry for the delays, this turned out to be a bigger chunk to chew on than I thought. No complaints, though, very educational.
Anyway, that's all for now. Will send an update as soon as the boxes are on their way. There are a huge number of flies, boys and girls, in fact the boxes I got from Byard wouldn't hold them all, so some are in Tupperware containers. Off to bed, see ya.

You passers-by who share my journey,
You move and change, I move and am the same;
You move and are gone, I move and remain.
