Justin,
We haven't heard from you for a while. As a person who actively promoted
the last Fly Swap you were also one of several that flaked out without a
single response to many emails from Danny McMillin; swapmeister. He waited
an extra month but never heard anything. I, for one, was very disappointed
with Justin in particular. Also flaking out without ever responding to
emails was Pat Bolton; since he did not actively promote the Fly Swap he
gets fewer demerits. Greg Mindt also flaked out but at least he had the
courtesy to correspond. Overall I was very surprised at the lack of
responsibility and motivation on the part of these tiers. Danny did a super
job but I know he was put in a very frustrating and embarrassing position
because he had to explain to the others why there were delays and repeatedly
try to get the slackers to respond and fulfill their commitment. I hope
that this doesn't put the nix on future swaps but I also hope that people
will act like mature adults. This can be a really fun thing but everyone
has to do their part; it's simple really. Unfortunately, this situation
needed to be brought to the attention of the list.

Subject: Feathers from afar.
Awhile back ago I wrote an email to a bird rancher in the Mid East
somewhere. I asked him If I could buy some of the feathers from the birds
that he had. The feathers that just dropped out from everyday hustle and
bustle etc. I gave him my address and told him to send me whatever he could
and I would reimburse him for what ever I thought they were worth.
Well Out of the blue I received this package today filled with Bags 4 in
all, full of feathers.
I did a quick scan of these feathers and put them on a rinky dink free
website.

I have a few good Ideas on what to use the feathers for.
But I really don't know what I am gonna use them all for.
Any Ideas?
Justin
