Hey staph,

First off, we had a great showing at the CPW fair last week.  There were 
lots of interested prefrosh, we put on a good front and had people play 
with our toys.  Thanks again to all that helped!

On tomorrow's agenda:

1) Printing the B&W "silver" patrons prints in the darkroom.  11x14" 
fiber prints... if you wanted to learn how to use fiber instead of the 
regular RC paper, this would be a good shot.

2) Matting said silver prints, along with the rest of the color "gold" 
patrons prints that already popped out of the Epson.  And putting bubble 
wrap around them and stuffing them in envelopes.

3) This isn't really "on the agenda", but we now have two working medium 
format rigs and a stock of 120 film!  We have two Mamiya 645 cameras, 
two viewfinders (including a new AE finder), three backs, three lenses 
(2 wide and 1 normal), and a metric gorilla worth of film.  If this 
arouses you, come borrow one.

Email Kat (katwong at mit.edu) with your food suggestions!  I think she's 
the brave soul that said she'd order food each week...

-Dave

P.S. Don't forget to send Alice (alicetrx at mit.edu) your T-shirt 
suggestions for next year's shirt.

P.P.S. The books arrive in < 2 weeks!  We also have senior sittings the 
week after next.  So you'll be hearing from Melissa, Kat, and Jackie 
about staphing the sittings and (wo)manning the booth in the student 
center for distribution.
