What I expect user groups to send me is a box/envelope/container of = their user group stickers. I=E2=80=99m asking for *at least 50*. Say for example we have 25 UGs participate (By sending stickers), we = will take 25 envelopes and put 2 stickers from every UG in each = envelope. Every UG that sends stickers gets an envelope back.=20 Obviously it will likely be an odd number and my plan is to return any = UG=E2=80=99s stickers that didn=E2=80=99t get stuffed into envelopes = back into the envelope going to them. > On Sep 1, 2016, at 13:39, Cal Evans <[email protected]> wrote: >=20 > Hmmm.
