Hi, LUGnuts!

I'm back.  I had several deadlines to meet so I didn't even turn on my 
e-mail for a couple of weeks.  Then I bought a new computer and in the 
process of transferring files, I lost all of the e-mail I had saved to 
answer!  It looked like all of you behaved while I was gone - 
shocking!  I'm sorry I missed the discussion on the Noctilux.  I would have 
chimed in with my two cents.

The trip to Honduras went great.  Our four doctors saw over 2000 patients 
in two weeks.  We traveled to the borders of Nicaragua, Guatemala and El 
Salvador and saw beautiful countryside and met wonderful people.  Honduras 
is still a mess nine months after Hurricane Mitch - thousands of people 
still living in tents.  My Leicas held up well this time.  I didn't drop a 
single one in a river.  I hope to add some photos to my website soon, but 
have to produce brochures, posters, two slide presentations and a video on 
the trip in the next couple of weeks.  The Charlotte Observer gave us great 
coverage with lots of photos - one advantage of taking a reporter on the trip!

I missed the LUG!  It's great to see all of those familiar names in the 
"Who" list!

Leically,

Tina
