  Thanks very much for your thoughts on a men's FUUSM service.<br>
<br>
   I like your ideas. Perhaps Gary H can join yo in a tribute to Ron Tepley--Gary had a lot of interaction with him inside and outside FUUSM.<br>
<br>
   Ralph O and Mike B can help us with the production. We should have some videos & songs.<br>
<br>
   Your February preference is duly noted.<br>
<br>
