By Kevin Keane, IAPHC CEO Chip off the Ol' Block? Aaron Sarubbi was recently named a co-recipient along with Melanie Bingham as Key Employees for 2000 at the Suttle Press annual awards dinner. If the name sounds familiar, it's because Aaron is the ridiculously handsome son of our IAPHC Chairman Tony Sarubbi. Of course, the Great Gallery Gopher wishes to inquire of Mr. Sarubbi the Younger's employer, one John Berthelsen, president of that award winning entity called Suttle Press, whether we might soon see International Gallery entries making their way to Gallery HQ which have been blessed by the hand of Sarubbi craftsmanship? Hmmmm???? Afterall, Mr. Berthelsen was once a Gopher himself. Drupa Bound? If you are looking for a last minute room at Drupa, our old friend Ed Kelly says he might be able to help.

Y'KNOW Your Knowledge Network Obviously Works From Roger Buck: I hope someone can help me find a source for a form that is 8 1/2" x 8 1/2" on a very heavy stock almost like chipboard.
