[Apple] The Woz

[Janet Hill]

Thanks Leonard for sending this out when I was on the road & away  
from my internet connection.

"The Woz" is one of my "Mac Mania Cruise friends".

If you get a chance to hear him speak, I guarantee you will enjoy it  
immensely.  There are still tickets so if you are available &  
interested check it out.  He loves educators so I hope we have a  
great showing from Nebraska!
