[Chapter-delegates] Arthur C. Clark and ISOC

[George Sadowsky]

Peter,

Thanks for the offer.  The tape is now on the way, via FedEx, to a 
volunteer in North Carolina.  With luck, it could be on YouTube by 
tomorrow evening.  Stay tuned.

This will not be seen by the chapter delegates list; I don't have 
posting privileges there.

George
