Default Re: August Meeting~Back to Basics

It was great seeing everyone! I had alot of fun doing the presentation; definitely re-learned some stuff which I always took for granted LOL!


I also have a small surprise for everybody. Due to work, I will be taking a less active role in the club. HOWEVER, a friend of my(whom some of you have met at the meeting) has agreed to translate articles for the club. Specifically, Aquajournal. We are still working on the detail, but suffice it to say, he is a fully qualified Japanese speaker who majored in, you guessed it, Japanese!

So this is what I plan on doing. I will be collaborating with my friend to try to translate one article per month from Aquajournal. So stay tuned!

Paul,

Thanks for all your help in the past and continue support for NASH. You are a great member and best of all a great friend. Take as much time off as possible to regroup then come back with vengeance. The economy definitely hit all of us recently but I blame more on your algae tanks!

It will be a great treat to have your friend translate those article for us. Looking forward to that!

I really enjoyed the meeting. Thanks Paul for the presentation and the food and company was great. Looks like I retired at the right time with the economy as it is.
