[Deptheads] We need more volunteers

[Eric M. Aldrich I]

I like the ideas put forth in the various emails, but as much as I  
like the TShirt idea, it's not so simple -- we'd have to take a guess  
as to how many extra to print. I'll do it, but I'd expect a few misses  
the first few time as we try to get the numbers right.
