I know what you mean Mike. It's not cheap to send out a box for > $15.00 and then 
have it disappear, so I always try to make it worthwhile for the next guy and make 
sure they get items worth many times that. Since I  started out one of the snowballs, 
I have received one here, and now sent it on again. You should be next on 
the list or close to being next on the list. I enclosed the addresses and crossed 
out Adrian Flynn.  I think that was the corretc thing to do since folks said he had 
dropped out.  I hope there wasn't supposed to be anyone else crossed off.  
Let's hope we soon hear something positive from the recipient of the snowball 
I sent out earlier this week.
