23 Feb 13 - 11:13 AM (#3482893) Subject: RE: Mystic Seaport call for papers '13 From: Marc Bernier Thank you Jeri. I started both. I realized I had misspelled Mystic in the first thread, which would have made a search difficult so I did another. I meant to ask a moderator to delete the 1st thread but clearly forgot. Yesterday was one of those days. Thanks again Jeri. |
