Is there anything you need at the show? I think I can get YOU and yer
lovely SO passes if you need them. Parking passes? A beer at Jay's RAP

That is EXTEMELY kind of you. We really weren't expecting payment of any
sort from anyone. Still, I'm tempted to take you up on this offer. My wife
graduated with her Master's in English last year, and got a job teaching as
an adjunct professor at University of Wisconsin-Fox Valley. She taught one
semester, then her position evaporated due to tax cuts which meant budget
cuts for UW. She's been unable to find employment since. I make enough to
support us comfortably, but without a lot of money left over, so I was
planning not to attend EAA except for days when I was volunteering with our
local EAA chapter. Unfortunately they only had two days open which I could
take. I was thinking of signing on as a volunteer in other areas so I could
get in on more days, but your pass offer is tempting. I'll contact you
off-group to discuss this further. Thanks ever so much.
