Ernie, as your friend, I thank you for "hatching the egg" What a
tremendous idea. I know you have gone through the full spectrum of
emotions on this. Only because you to are passionate about
BlueBirds.. "From the break-up to today" your compassion, aka brain
child has suceeded to today. WOW.. who woulda thunk it. You were wise
beyond your years. Just keep your chin up and things will work out.
They always do.

WE ALL OWE YOU ALOT. Especially in today's world when all we are
going to have is the knowledge base of each other. I have never seen
anything like in all my professional career.

Thanks again for the forward thinking..
