Please read the email below and attachment to this correspondence.  The professional soil scientists within South Carolina are currently in the process of having to change their professional oversight from the Dept of Natural Resources to the Dept of Labor & Licensing.  What should be a simple matter is always subject to political interference or pressures.  Thus they have to hire a lobbyist to guide them through this process.  Time is of essence.
 
Please consider contributing funds to this professional cause at:
Soil Science Society of SC
c/o Mr. John Thorp, Treasurer
P.O. Box 483
Sullivans Island, SC  29482-0483
 
Thanks for supporting your soils profession.

Hi Larry,
You can send any donations payable to Soil Science Society of SC to John Thorp, Treasurer, P.O. Box 483, Sullivans Island, SC  29482-0483. 
 
I have attached a letter from Randy Fowler, President of the Society, explaining what we are trying to do.  (This October letter states that we will be pre-filing the bill in November; however, it now looks like it will be mid- to late December.)  Even though our lobbyist is giving us a discount, it is still expensive for our relatively small group.  We sure do appreciate your interest and help on this issue!
 
We recently met with our lobbyist, and I am firmly convinced that we cannot do this by ourselves.  He has the skills and the contacts; we don't.
If anyone has any questions, please contact Randy or me.  Our info is in the attached letter.
 
Thanks again for your interest and support!

Dennis,
 
Please let me know "who", "where", and "how" to fill out donations to SC lobbyist fund for certification / licensing efforts.  I'll be glad to send donation personally, and send out notification with your information to the NSCSS membership and the CSSC membership which covers the SC area.
 
Thanks!

If you happened to be in San Diego at the 2004 NSCSS meeting, you might remember our lunchtime speaker discussing the resurrection of wetlands in Iraq.  Azzam Al-Wash could not attend but sent his research team over to present the talk.  A segment on this week's 60 Minutes featured his work and shows a good amount of background and visuals of conditions from the 70s to now.  Appears to be successful and I encourage you to watch the video at the following link:

Hello Mark and colleagues:
 
The proposed business seminar sounds great.  If of any interest to our group, I would be pleased to participate in the discussion:  "Retire on the Beach. . . . " (Moderated by Pierre).  The essence of my "contribution" would be:  Why retire to the beach; why not live there in the first place?
 
Cheers; thanks - Roy

Great little test.  I scored 90, which is better than my college GPA.  Never heard the term "teacup" effect before.
