the big band version of the War Hymn! Rebecca Kirby, Hutto, TexasRe: Project HOLD website new home page -Looks good and makes way more sense in terms of you being able to update it.
Jay Socol, COCSRe: Exploring History newsletter: That is a lovely newsletter. Good job! :) Candice Martin, citizenRe: Exploring History newsletter: This looks great... and I love the
75th logo! You should have stamps created. Becky Nugent, Former COCSRe: Exploring History newsletter: I ran across a file copy of your Project Hold newsletter for March 2007. Thanks
so much for your excellent tribute to Momma and Karen. Both articles are fun reading. I've created a plastic coated version of pages 1 -6 to take in for Dad's reading, so we'll all be
rereading it many times in the months (or years) to come. Eleanor (Worley) Jordan, Austin, TexasRe: Project HOLD -I didn't realize their was a 75-page "Kitty Worley Teacher's Scrapbook"
on line. I enjoyed paging through the pdf. Also enjoyed listening to the 1941 Aggie War Hymn. I'll find a later version and take it on on my mp3 player for Dad to listen to on my next
visit. Congrats on your visits to classrooms to talk about CS history. The city is lucky to have such a creative and energetic history buff. Eleanor (Worley) Jordan, Austin, Texas 3/2
