Kitty,

Thanks to Don and you for your help with the awards.  I'm glad that you're
making progress.  I want to keep the award the way we originally set it up
-- $300 per state.  You can divide the prize any way Don or you wish.

I'm totally swamped.  I've been on the road for almost a month and am about
to head to DC.  Hope you got into the graduate school of your choice.

Cheers,
Pick

>Hi Pick!
>Hope all is well!  I received a note from Don Linzey from the Virginia
>Regional Science Fair on his Discover Life Special Award recipients.
>His judges have chosen a team project (which consists of three team
>members) instead of the scheduled 1st place, 2nd place, and Honorable
>Mention Awards.  He had asked in the note if Discover Life could
>increase the award to his winners from $33.00 each to $50.00.  You are
>providing $300.00 for each state's awards - so if you divide it up among
>the people he has chosen (including the student's teacher), that would
>be $75.00 each.  Would you like to do it that way?  Or either give the
>teacher $100.00 and each team member $65.00 or so......Whatever is
>fine.
