Thanks much for taking on this leadership r= ole. =0A =0AWhat I would ask all the other mixmasters/washers is to help D= ave/Jeff in the meantime, until they get some traction, is to schedule your= self for a particular day/time. All you need to do is go to the website: h= ttp://www.gobiodiesel.org/index.php?title=3DMixmaster_calendar#Schedule_Fue= lmaking and edit the page to add yourself to a particular day/time. Knowin= g that we need min of 2 people for washing, if several people get their nam= es out there for some days, then others can come back and find a day/time t= hat works for them and pair up. =0A =0AI have seen/heard the frustration f= rom some who really want to continue the momentum, we just need to communic= ate our availability. Once Dave/Jeff are moving with the scheduling, they = can help this process along, like Tamar was doing for the past months. =0A = =0AIf you have any questions/problems with editing the website, feel free t= o contact me. =0A=0ARight now, for the remainder of Sept, I am only avail = Wed, Sept 26.
