I am trying to get a hold of President Nieves. I saw President Dyer in the hospital a few months ago. He had just had one of his knees replaced. But he told me President Nieves was having some health problems. If anyone knows how to get a hold of him let me know.

Hey everyone!!
Be sure to take advantage of Larson's hospitality. He is a big enough sucker....er, I mean nice enough to offer his guest bedroom. I will be sure and report if I can make him feed me and drive me around when I am down there.

Jake, give me a call, so we can hang out when you are down here.

Thanks to the 4 couples that showed up to the reunion for President Flores. We had a great visit. We wish more had joined us. We enjoyed talking about old times and old companions. We are planning to do it again next year for our 20 year reunion. I hope that we can make some more connections for then. It is planned to be the Friday before next April Conference. Well, sorry that we missed the rest of you. Take care,
Jess Brown

A correction: It's not "quinepas," but "quenepas." This according to my ex-wife, who is puertorriquena -- de Fajardo. (Yes, I married an investigator/convert...)

I am just posting this to tell you all that I am going home the Patria on May 7th. While you all are toiling away at your lame little careers I will be wasting time eating pinchos and limbers (you know the home-made popcicles in the plastic cups) If any of my former comps want me to relay any messages to their old girfriends, I mean investigators, they will need to contact me soon.

Hey, helpful information. I go to a market in Berkeley that has amazingly exotic fruit -- now that I know what other names (and related fruit) to look for, I'll keep an eye out.
Too bad your posted phot isn't a "scratch and sniff" (or "scratch and taste"?) :-)

Known in english as Genips or Spanish Lime. I haven't been able to find them in in the US, but rumor has it they grow in Florida and can be found for sale there. A couple of similar fruits, from the same family, soapberries, can be found in Asian Markets under the name Lychee or Longan. Evidently they don't look much alike, one is red, the other brown, but are said to have a similar taste and texture, complete with the pit. I'll have to drop one on a shirt to see if they have the same staining power as the ones from PR.

I was so pleased to see someone post a photo of quinepas! For years, I have been trying to describe this fruit to people -- with little success... Is there any other name for these in the states? Are they only available in PR? (And if memory serves, they were only in season for a couple months in PR...) Do they grow on a bush? A tree?
