WAAC Newsletter disaster recovery issue

With sympathy for any of you who may need this:

The WAAC Newsletter flood recovery issue, first printed Sept. 2005,
post Katrina, is available as an back issue.  $10.  A 20% discount
will be given for purchases of ten copies or more of an issue.

Also, until August, 2008, it will be posted online at our website,
available free as a PDF file.

Note:  you must download the "Salvage at a Glance" chart separately.
Of course, with the back issue you get the 17 x 22 inch  chart
printed on very sturdy waterproof paper so it will hold up to a lot
of use.   And, no, we cannot sell the charts without the Newsletter.
