In his November 2 email, Tropical spokesman Dan O’Neil indicated that his company is “glad to support your organization.” O’Neil has given BFB project director Bobbie Nemerson instructions for invoicing and labeling an anticipated fifteen (15) cartons of donated books scheduled for shipment on December 2, 2000.

“What a thrill this will be for the people of Grenada,” explains Bobbie, “a real holiday gift.”
