Hi All --

As the chile season draws to a (sad) close, and in light of Uncle Steve's
generous offer of seeds, I've been thinking....(possible "Scanner"-type
brain explosion imminent)....

My chile "fields" are pretty vanilla, but I would like to save some seeds on
the off chance that I might have something to offer someone.  I often read
about seed trading and have just as often wished that I could do it, too.
That said, would this be a good time for one of you pros to (re-)post some
instructions for seed saving?

By the way, my vanilla garden contains the following (if anyone is
interested in these seeds):  jalapeno, Tabasco, cayenne, cowhorn, red hot,
Caribbean red (similar to habs), orange habanero, and Thai hot.

Atlanta CH's -- as Fall approaches, my harvest diminishes, but the offer
still stands if any of you need fresh chiles.  I am in Tucker (near
Spaghetti Junction -- woo hoo!).

And, finally -- are there any Atlanta/Southeastern CH's without Thanksgiving
plans?  My wife and I will not be traveling home for Thanksgiving this year
and have considered a Thanksgiving Hot Luck here at the homeplace, depending
on interest.  Just let me know.

Matt
