I did not see the email that Susan Sheldon is responding to Brad. This new screening of our email is playing havoc.

Brad, I'm so lucky I have Friday Sept 13 open to come over to NMSL.
Meantime, I'll write up some pros and cons of Polaris. And I'd like to
know the pros and cons of Koha, so please share those asap.
