    <p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">That would of course be

        a wonderful option.  Unfortunately, the Foundation does not

        presently have the ability to generate a randomized statistical

        sample of the larger community (which includes mappers, data

        users, software developers, systems/hardware admins,

        communicators, and event organizers).  If you have a specific

        proposal for how to accomplish this, one that is practical and

        would not break the bank, please PM me and we'll discuss.  <br>
