Hey Brad  -

 

As long as you're sending out DVD's of Paul's talk, could you shoot one my
way please?

 

Thanks and have a great holiday!

Hello Jim, 

 

I have two different video tapes of Paul's lecture at our Mass Annual
Meeting.  If you would like, I could burn a dvd and send it to you. Thanks
to Gary Jacob and Frank Howard for taping!

Hello Jamie

No American Chestnut Seeds to offer, but I did want to contact you. Paul
Sisco thought that a local paper recorded his talk of November 22, 2008. If
that is the case I would appreciate the name and phone number of that
individual so I could get in touch with him.

 

Another question. When do you see the Massachusetts Chapter of TACF
producing their first BC3F3 seeds?

 

By the way, I thought the November Chapter meeting was very successful, with
Paul Sisco's talk being the highlight of the day. I hope he can stay
involved with our quest.

Regards, Jim Wood

I don't know of any, perhaps Charlotte or Frank Howard know of some.

Hi MA Folks -
 
Fred Hebard and Bob Paris, scientists from TACF, are looking for American
chestnut seed for a research study (see below).  Did anyone collect any
extra American seed this year that they could part with?  Any contributions
would be greatly appreciated.
 
Cheers!

Subject: purpose of seed
 
Kendra,
 
In case it wasn't clear, the primary purpose of these nuts is for a  
research project at Auburn U to find a means of eliminating  
Phytophthora cinnamomi infection or infestation of seedlings in  
forest nurseries, so we're not spreading that fungus all over with  
our seedlings.
 
Fred
