Gentlemen:
 
In amongst all of the trappings of Halloween trick or treat comings and goings last evening, we had a knock at the door saying "UPS", which I immediately thought was a hoax - but it was not, it was a package from AMSAT. The contents of the box was of a total unexpected nature.
 
Your placing on me an "AMSAT 2006 Presidential Achievement Award" was of great surprise and very humbling at the same time. (I personally feel that I have caused more trouble than good.) Be that as it may, the award is greatly appreciated, and from this point on I am at a loss for further words of appreciation
 
The AMSAT box also contained a really neat travel laptop/office case that I expect will be very well used in coming times as we progress on the Eagle Project.
 
Thank you ever so much for this gift and award.
 
Dick Jansson
