a group called USH2O, the Utility Solar Water Heating Initiative. It's a

<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I noted on
the FSEC website the research that you're undertaking to test water heater
performance. Since several solar water heaters are included in the study,
I know the USH2O group would be interested in this research. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

you be available to join one of the next USH2O conference calls and talk about
the research? The next conference call will be held on Wednesday, March
18 at 3 p.m. Eastern, and our regular meeting is on the second Tuesday of each
month. Also, if available, I'd like to distribute some information in
advance about the research to the USH2O mailing list.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
