Re: Stall Posters

I will be totally honest and say I think I was sent an email by Andreas (or 
someone) earlier but since I recently started organising my emails I deleted 
it :(

So in defense of Andreas et al SOMEONE actually DID ask me - and then I spent 
some time trying to figure out who that was to tell them I deleted their mail. 

(mea culpa)
