Mr. Gore opened his talk with some graphics of humorous and interesting use of the eight characters allowed on NC license plates - with examples of real plates. This is the one on his wife's car.
Usually our monthly speaker meetings are at lunchtime. This month we held it in the morning. We had a good turnout and a terrific speaker. Thanks, Ms. Ansley and Mr. Gore for your interesting presentations.
