This is my original invite. I'd saved the email as a text file for some reason.

Dear Tom,

Attached is the "official" invitation to our Online Communities
Mini-Conference.  We sure would like you to come and tell us about FidoNet.
 What would it take to get you down here for a few days?  There will be
some choice people in attendance and everyone is guaranteed to learn
*something* interesting.  You have my email address; voice is 415-354-0882
(harder to connect); also can send me email at laurel@well.sf.ca.us - I
actually check there more often.

Cheers,

Brenda
