Stott:

I do hope it happens. In any event, I've blocked the time on my
calendar and will be driving to the area from Santa Barbara.
I'm committed, one way or another.

Obviously Casper has put some effort into organizing the outing.
It would be shame if the plans fell through. For me, though, the
plans for some fun collecting definitely will not fall through. :-)
