Re: Weekly update

Seth,
  Just letting you know I plan on being at the site every Saturday. This
co-op is my top priority here in Portland, and I'm excited to help and to
learn. Is 9 am when things really get started or should I just show up at 11
until I know what I'm doing?
   The committee meeting tonight was a joke. I only had two people come, and
neither of them are in the co-op yet. We'll hope for better turnout next
week. About the glycerin you sent me home with... I don't think the methanol
is evaporating very efficiently. They still smell like methanol (as far as I
can tell). Especially the KOH one. Did you happen to talk to your dad yet
about soap-making? If not, you could always just give me his contact info
and I'll speak to him directly. Thanks for the help.
    - Ian
