Volume picking up; Price stable. Frank, any word on your promised meeting with the well rested MOT? He's been back for over a week. The "troops" are getting restless. We already lost Gibby and If I were a betting man,and you know I am since we first met in ---where was that---oh that's right---in Las Vegas NV. and I purchased stock in Alfa, I'd guess that Alton has slipped ever so quietly back under his rock. Would it spoil some vast eternal plan (stole that from Fiddler on the Roof) if we were to know, at the very least, when the meeting is scheduled to take place?---BILL.
