For the 69 of us on the TV-ready-list

[Ivan M Suzman <cureit@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello folks,

>From  1 to 69------thank you all for joining my initiative.  Now, janet
REALLY deserves our community's thank you, for keeping the tv-ready list
in excellent shape.

 Listing oneself is the beginning. To each of you, I wish to pose one
question:

Ready?

On camera, if you had just 2 minutes, what talking point or points would
you emphasize?  What waould your message be?  We all, myself included,
will benefit from a discussion of our most crucial  talking  points.

Janet, are you able  to add a line to the introduction to the list of 69
tv-ready pwp's and caregivers, reminding people to be prepared well in
advance of going on-camera?  Oh, a funny thought, on-camera almost is the
same as "on-set"!

Ivan
