<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;"><DIV>Thanks Tian. There are, or at least were, around 400 Greens in Sunnyvale. Any ideas how to gather up a bunch of them? And do we need to include only Greens? I haven't seen anything from Drew lately. Maybe he knows more Greens here than I do. I have around a dozen. I haven't been very successful at getting them out to Green events.</DIV>
