I've been informed by Chriscried that I'm thinking of Oliver, my apologies =
Reece! I apparently haven't been paying enough attention to this list!

So Oliver, or really any young person with an avid interest in growing food=

  Good day all,
  Reece, as I recall, is a younger member of our listserv (where'd the "e" =
go? Bacteria?). There is an opportunity that I think Reece would be interes=
ted in pursuing. I could spell it out, but please see the following. The co=
nference for young agriculturists is paid for through grants, though the pa=
rticipants may need help in their travel costs. Something that I think this=
 group would help Reece with. Please review the following and see if we can=
't get our youngest member of this listserv to this conference.......we wou=
ld of course, require a report from young Reece for our support......8~)
