I am forwarding this email from Kat. can anyone help? Hello! I found your name while attempting to do a search for a "long-lost" friend. Her name is Crystal Bottoms, and we both lived in Saudi Arabia for a good deal of time in the early to mid-eighties. Her father's name was William "Bill" Bottoms, so I thought I would at least try and see if perhaps you are related in some way. This has been an on-going search for over ten years, so any help you can provide -- even an email telling me that you have no clue -- would be truly beneficial! *grin* Thank you so much, Kat Steingraber ICQ: 1492782 elemental@knology.net Bill Bottoms bbottoms@intercom.net
