Wow, thanks Peggy, are you organized or What???? That's really going to help
get this into the newspaper. This war bride list is GREAT!! The only thing
I can think of is if you had the emails to the Editors of these newspapers,
being so far away it's hard, time consuming and expensive for me to phone
every single one of these newspapers in follow up. Plus, I think I'd start
going cross eyed. As I mentioned in an earlier email, if you feel like
taking up the gauntlet in terms of an interview with the newspapers, go
ahead. It's the local angle that counts anyways.
