I attended the symposium in Las Vegas in 2002. I was really excited to meet lots of ferret folks as I live in CA. I remember how Bill tirelessly facilitated the 3-day event AND continued to get the FML out. He followed the saga's that were unfolding as we were sequestered in LV soaking up all the great information. At the time there was a ferret missing - had been missing for awhile and I can still remember (and I get tears in my eyes just writing this) when Bill made the announcement that the lost baby had been found. Everyone was so overjoyed and happy. If I recall it was Eppie - Donna's baby??? Maybe Bill can recall??? Either way - once again he delivered joyous news and kept us FML'ers informed. Thanks Bill. : ) Tanya [Yes, it was Donna's Eppy. BIG] [Posted in FML issue 4602]
