Don't forget to send in your registration for the JBS Spring meeting (registration deadline: March 31).  Also, make a couple phone calls to Josses in neighboring towns to make sure that they are aware that the meeting is fast approaching (not everyone is subscribed to this email list).  I'm looking forward to seeing everyone in Lewiston in three weeks!
