Ah Len, sorry -- I forgot that rkw was also a skilled press op! Thus, I
directed Alex to you. I am glad your memory is better than mine.

I believe we still have a bunch of blank notecards leftover from last term.
They should be in the grey file cabinet, where we keep the
sharpies/pens/paper clips/etc. The second drawer down, I think? If not, they
might be underneath the stone in the printshop.

If Wayne is no longer printing schedule cards, we could consider printing
our *own* schedule cards. Or printing them for him? There was some talk
about doing this... but it would be a pretty big undertaking! Too big to do
it this term, surely. Just food for thought.

YiLFS,
Kristin
