There were a tremendous amount of positive soapbox comments received from the COQP participants. They will be published in the December or January edition of the PPRAA’s Zero Beat newsletter.

Again, my thanks to everyone for their participation and support. Special thanks go to the PPRAA and especially it’s Board of Directors.
