[sac-board] Re: Non-Club Articles in the Newsletter

Hello Rick,

I don't have anything written for you  yet, but could put an article 
or articles together fairly quickly.

What is your deadline?

Do you have any preference for the first article? The theta Orioins 
project is ongoing and we plan more observations in January to look 
for the secondary eclipse and also again in February for the primary 
again.
