<Telecom> okie
<chat^^kat> by our reckoning...and comparing dates...we figure that the adoptions of billie, raymon, jimmy, susan and me happened somewhereabouts in April of 1952...and sam seems to think all the adoptions happened within about a week
<chat^^kat> and at about the same time...

<chat^^kat> don't think it was a group
<chat^^kat> i think billie was adopted...then susan...then the group of 3 at one time
<chat^^kat> all within a week's time
<chat^^kat> and we think this happened while ruby was at ulmer's
