| Henry, some time ago you did a story on artificial lawns and mentioned some companies that do this. We are interested putting this in our backyard. Can you tell me the bay area companies that you had mentioned that do this or tell me the brands that you reviewed? Thank you very much!

| You spoke at graduation in -78 for Woodward High School
|
|
| First of all, my condolences regarding the passing of your mom in April. I am 6th generation Californian, but went to Woodward High School in Maryland when my Dad was a special consultant at NIH. We just had a guest speaker, Dr. Eric Shapira at our Rotary Club in Millbrae and I saw the interview. When I mentioned the website for Dr. Shapira (which includes a clip of the interview) to a high school friend who graduated with me, she mentioned that you were the Key Note speaker at our graduation. She had the photos to prove it. It gets to be a lovely and small world. I enjoyed your Garden Show and all that you do now and will continue to follow you. All best wishes in all your endeavors. If you can e-mail me back, I would sincerely appreciate it. |

| Henry,
Thanks for the wonderful interview on Sunday with the authors of The Inner Game of Stress, Tim Gallwey & Dr. John Horton. Just had a chance to view it today. We will post it up on YouTube shortly so everyone can here your ringing endorsement of the "Inner Game" and stories and tools from Tim and John on how to de-stress your life.
Hope we can take you up on your offer to have them on again! |

| exhibit in SF Yoshi's lobby
|
|
| Hi Henry,
I hope all is well. You may remember in 2004 I was your guest on the Sunday morning news show chatting about my exhibit for the SF Arts Commission at City Hall. Commencing 11/22 my jazz enlargements are being shown in SF Yoshi's lobby and there are also 17 photographs scattered about in Yoshi's main entertainment room, bar/restaurant area and upstairs lounge. There are also 2 other photographers who feature their work in the club & restaurant area. The 3 of us are the ones who primarily shot in Oakland Yoshi's. The 29 lobby images were solely shot by yours truly and there are also banners depicting Charles Sullivan who booked shows at the Fillmore Auditorium before Bill Graham took over in 1966. I hope you can stop by Yoshi's lobby,club and the Lush Life Gallery in the same building where I serve as Special Projects Director. Perhaps you can mention the exhibit on the air.
All the best,
Mars Breslow
