Steve Geppi....

Sorry, about the reply, I accidently sent my first answer only to Gary, and 
when I fixed it, I made a mistake....(sorry Gary for getting 3 mails from 
me!)

Anyways, what I meant to say is, Last night I coincidently ran into Steve 
Geppi at a restaurant and had a very nice conversation with him about Carl 
Barks (I am very grateful to Mr. Geppi because back in 1996 he threw a 95th 
birthday exhibit for Carl here in Baltimore and gave me an oppurtunity to 
actually meet the duckman himself. I was only 13 then, and it was one of the 
most thrilling moments of my life). It was very sad though, hearing Steve 
talk about how he'd hoped to throw another party for Carl's 100th 
birthday...sigh....Well, I asked him how his struggle for the Disney 
liscense was going, and he said that it was in the final stages. It sounds 
very hopeful to me, so English-speaking only fans take heart!
