Re: COMMON Education Foundation (CEF)

Pete,

I won one of the 50/50 CEF drawings on (I think) Tuesday night.  It was 
$368 and I donated it all back to CEF on the spot.  If the CEF board 
decides to go through with the idea, do you think I could earmark the 
entire winnings in Al's memory?

Thanks.
