    Dave,
    
    What about bringing or even mailing flyers to what's left of the local  
    computer stores?  The bank account is slowly shrinking (monthly fees  
    after the first free year until we get 501(C)3, and I've committed to  
    covering most of that once we get the rating) but is enough to cover  
    postage.  I'll try to check my stash of phone books tomorrow.
    
    Jack
