Re: Time to get this Valentine's Page going!
First of all, I want to apologize for sliding of the dev-team email list.
(Hangs head in shame.)
Anyway, I wanted to discuss the possibility of getting the getting the
Valentine's page as a splash page that has a link at the bottom saying,
"Come to our Website" or something like that. I realize we wanted to get
this page running by today, but I think we're still on a good pace.
Thank you so much for the work that's been done so far.
