[Lnc-business] May 3 LNC meeting via Adobe Connect to discuss logos

Tue Apr 28 15:54:56 EDT 2015

I have not sent a snail mail Logo survey yet as I had hoped to as 
discussed at the last LNC meeting. I don't see having time to squeeze 
one in before the LNC meeting.

However, if someone is able to set up an online survey, I could send an 
email to participants to take the online survey.

However, one problem remains that the Rosie the Riveter option proposed 
by Aaron Starr isn't finished yet as far as I know. So I suppose it's 
too soon to send a survey, now that I think about it.
