Friends, My West Coast tour is shaping up very well. My thanks to all of you who have been organizing events. I'm looking forward to meeting all of you. I've attached below the still-evolving itinerary. If you are in one of those areas, and want to get involved or attend events, let me know. My friend Chris has been acting as publisher, and has been generously funding publication expenses. (He's also the one who maintains our cyberjournal servers, domain registration, etc.) This trip is going to be expensive, given the sharp rises in fuel costs and airfares, and is beyond what Chris can afford to spend (he's got a family to take care of as well! ) Besides airfare, there's also car rental, travel insurance, and gasoline. There's no lodging expense, as people are putting me up in each location. This is very much a collaborative, cooperative venture. If any of you are willing (and can afford) to chip in something, small or not so small, that would be much appreciated. :-) Paypal to <•••@••.•••> works well, and checks can be sent to: If sent by Sep 20: Richard Moore Quay Largo Selskar Street Wexford, IRELAND If later: Richard Moore c/o Breitbard 740 San Jude Palo Alto, CA 94306 USA My 9/11 radio interview on RadiOrbit with Mike Hagan went very well.
