[vox] [fwd] [OT] Poetry Book Release Party

[Bill Kendrick]

For those who live under a rock, Andy Jones is host of
"Dr. Andy's Poetry & Technology Hour" on KDVS radio (90.3FM in Davis).
He has had a number of LUGOD members as guests, and also regularly
announcements meetings (or, at the least, plays our KDVS PSA), during his
show.  He's even turned up to at least one meeting. ;^)
