[GreenKeys] Need PC to TTY Loop Keyer ASAP fast

[gil smith]

Guys:

Fedex just called me to tell me the address is incomplete -- needs a suite 
number and telephone.

Please contact fedex at 800-238-5355 and reference track number 
7901-7597-8320.  They will hold it at the local center for a couple of 
days, or re-deliver.  I don't know why they did not call me until 7pm EST 
when the package was to be a 10:30 delivery.

Let me know what is going on.

ps: if anyone on greenkeys has a phone number for either Sellam or John, 
please forward it to me.

thanks,

gil
