Slime, now Nishikigoi Courses/AKCA - 06/07/06 Hi Bob, I had

highlight them in red for this message. Best, Spike PS, scroll down FAQ

AKCA Pitches again - 06/07/2006 Hi, <Hello Spike and
Karen> Just got off the phone with Bob Fenner. He is a
looong time fish guy who been in the industry for
years. Knows (almost everyone and) a lot about everything
from marine fish to koi. He said he's not much
interested in doing internet courses but likes to do F2F
stuff. I asked about the possibility of doing a CE course at
the Phoenix Seminar next year and he said that would be something
he'd be interested in. I told him that I'd peruse his site and
suggest some topics and see if anything struck his fancy. I told him
that I'd want to stay in the loop (cuz he's a true fish geek
and loads of fun to talk with) but that we needed to bring you in as
the CE Coordinator for the KHAs. He agreed and I told him
I'd set up an e-introduction. Which I'll
do. MOF, this is it! Cheers, Spike <I new dream unfolds.
Thank you, Bob Fenner>
