  1. Claud,

    Thanks for posting this here but the link doesn't seem to work. Have you posted this over at SofA? There are a few other members who I'd bet would be willing to participate in the survey.

  2. You know..it was weird. I did it, and then everythime I went back to the link...it was MY survey???
    And I could not just find it.
    I think I need to send the email directly to whomever. Like it got attached to my ISP or addy or something. I did post it at SoA, but I am sure it will have the same issue.
    I'll forward it to you.

  3. I'd be careful with this. This is coming from some of the people who sold adoptees down the river last year with the amended open records bill that created a 34 year blackhole in which people adopted in those years cannot get their records. Everybody before or after can. As far as I can tell they're legitimizing "implied promises" to moms. How can a promise be implied. It is or isn't? Ther are 2 "open records bills" pending and hearingds wil be held March 21. They are all the same--or as we say, Blackhole x 3.

    If you fill out the survey and you believe this blackhole is wrong, you should say so. I'm getting something out to MARTA tonight and probably on Bastardette tomorrow about the billsl and the hearing.

    I'm still catching up from the AAC. Much interesting stuff has developed including the M's threatening to sue me. Due to possible litigation, I'm not discussing anything publicly, but some of it is on my blog.

    It was great meeting you, Claud. Once I'm caught up there's some information I'll email you.
