Hi Jan,

I didn't know you were a MG. So am I.

How long? I'm barely hanging on to my certification and I sure can't work
in the clinic since I went back to work. I only get the hour of the 4 hour
class/week. :-( Anyway, I signed up in 1996 when it was free, now they
charge $100, with half returned once folks put in their volunteer time.

So I;m hanging in there for now, as I do manage the 25 hour minimum
(usually more) of volunteer pay back time required each year. Plus, it is a
great group of people. How about you? ~ jan


Just since 2005. The first year requires 50 hrs and 25 after that. Doesn't
seem to be a problem. I think they picked me for my IT skills - I'm now in
charge of the "computer" committee, which seems to be everything that
doesn't have to do with an actual plant

We're under the auspices of the University of California.

You are right about it being a great group of people. Although I would have
to say several are just a tad on the crazy side - a lot like some ponders!
