Welcome to the

show friends. I've been up in the woods too long. My mind is going being by myself on the lake.

Welcome to the show friends. Great cocoa here for standard reason. With the on Tuesdays from

four until six specific time and that's when you can call in and we can chat together.

I don't have the phone number in front of me, but if you go to str.org and find the broadcast

page all the information is there. In fact, you'll find something else if you go there.

You'll find our new open mic project that is if you have called in and if you've

wanted to call in in the in the past and haven't been able to make the times work.

And you still have a question that you'd like to ask me. You can just go to our

website str.org, go to the broadcast page and you will find a feature called open mic.

And you can just push the button basically and then record your question.

And then Amy will take it and show give me a list and as time goes on, we'll draw from that list.

And sometimes when I have to do a show all by myself and it's not live, I'm just recording one for

the future. We'll just use that list. We call it the open mic and we have a number of

questions already in the queue here. And what we'll do is we'll play your recorded

question and then I'll respond to it. So it's a way of participating in the show without

having to wait on hold as all of our three callers right now that are in the queue have done

from the last hour. So Mark and Barb and Ross, you'll be happy to know I'm going to get

right to you and not have a commentary. But I wanted people first to know about the open mic.

And also that you can dial direct to do that. You don't even need to go online.

Here's the full number to dial direct to be able to leave your question.

That's 857 dial STR 857 dial STR or by the numbers 857 342 5787.
