[New-Poetry] Introduction

[Elaine Brown]

Oh!  My goodness!  

Hello Steve, 

I am in Anchorage until early August.  I would love to hear anything you
have to say about the Fairbanks program, as well as what you think of the
town.  Where are you from originally?  Thank you for extending a response to
my introduction.

Elaine
