No, we don't have a new stripper yet. It is part of the new website, and will 
make its debut when the new website makes its debut. (And before you ask, no, I 
don't know when the new website will be deployed.)

HTH, Carrie

I haven't been keeping up with my mail and have done a few mass deletes in this 
folder over the past few weeks. Do we officially have a new stripper now or is 
this talk about when we do? Thanks.
