Richard and Dave,

You both have been added to the list.

All,

We currently have 12 folks listed, and I'm splitting them into two groups
to get two snowballs rolling at once.  In thinking about it, I came up with
an idea... with two groups (and possibly more in the future)... those two
groups wouldn't have access to what's in the other group's snowball.  So
how about this:  When the snowball reaches the last person in a group, they
would then send that snowball to the first person on the other list.  That
way both snowballs roll through each group.  What think you?

Thanks and 73,
Jeramy W5XTL
