Sandi--I think that you are right. Once a reunion is planned, I know you want the date/place/cost etc posted on this list. But "who wants to help", let's have in the summer","I live...., you live .....," etc. starts to clutter up email lists. Especially for people who are on numerous genie lists. That's just my opinion, and I think it agrees with what you'ved said. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sandi Carter" <redfox5@sbcglobal.net> To: <MAUPIN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, August 13, 2005 7:54 PM Subject: Re: [MAUPIN-L] Virginia Maupin Reunion > --- Rose Marie Martin <rmartin@ns.gemlink.com> wrote: > > Rose Marie: > > <<< What a shame that the discussion list can't be a forum for those who would like to have a > Maupin Reunion.

Once all is planned we'll all be tickled pink to hear the details. Also, I'm sure we can pass the hat to help defray expenses. IT ISN'T fair for several people to suffer the costs of any reunion, small or huge. I sure don't want to have one more discussion about this as THIS is also not Debate-L . Thank you much! Best, Cuz Sandi
