Surveys/ Re: For Badgeholders Only Master Archive Series Project

[Jeremy Mixer <mixer@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi FBO -since this relates to one of the issues addressed by many 
in the survey, I just wanted to let you all know that I have not gottena 
chance to finsih my summarry of the returned surveys. I will be posting 
the summary within the next couple of days (I forgot this was a holiday 
weekend when I planned on getting it done Thursday....so sue me for 
forgetting this week is the week we celebrate stealing tons of land from 
the Indians)

And Chas+FBO.....

I think this would be a fantastic idea! One thing I have to ask is this 
though- I am familiar with trees/leaves/brances, as well as weeds....but 
what is a vine exactly? And please forgive me if this is common 
knowledge...but I have never heard this expression

And while I am at it, is the explination of "vine", as well as tree/brach 
etc something that would be worthy of the main FAQL?

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving,

and thanks!
