dave and all,
comunication karma!!!!!!  my phone land line/service is off and on.  verizon 
answering service has been down for a week.  my celly fell into the toilet.  
the computer froze up wednesday, (thursday morning actually).   so all i can 
say about transportation is this:

1.  annie
2.  bill
3.  lloyd
4.  elie
5.  jen
jen is on the cape righ† now and i do not have the number.  i assume she 
will call me again to see if i have room.  if anyone talks with her please

Thank you, Mike.
Yes, I do need transportation.
David, would you please give me a call 617-491-5350
None of the people with whom I usually get a ride (in the absence of public 
transportation) Ron, Mike, Merelice, will not be attending.
