I think we have enough participants to start the first AV&G forum Round Robin!

These are the great guidelines another group moderator came up with:

It is important that each participant take out what they want to keep, toss what is iffy, add to the box and mail it ASAP. This is what will make it go smoothly.

Everyone pays the postage to get the box Priority with tracking information to the
next person on the list.

The box will be started with leaves, starters, and whatever else can be thrown
in. When you receive the box and there are dead leaves, etc., please throw them
out and replace what you can. Please keep the names and address list with the
box for the next person. You are welcome to place anything in the box, just
remember you need to replace what you take. You are also welcome to throw in
extras. But please don't throw in your old leaves, make sure what you are
sending is viable plant material for propagation.

You are not obligated to take anything you don't want, so if something doesn't
suit your fancy, send it out to the next recipient on the list.

Once you have made your selection, post to the group what you have taken and
when you sent the box out to the next recipient. Including a tracking number is
helpful.

DO NOT POST TO THE GROUP WHAT IS IN THE BOX, only what you kept.

Box route:

Here's something neat: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&msid=1072...

The red line shows where the RR has arrived. The blue line shows where it will be going! Purple will mean "in transit".
