Okay, guys, here it is: the Quotes from the weekend, transcribed!
There may be some errors; not everyone's penmanship was 100%
readable. But I think I got it 95% correct! In any event, I'm
sure people will post corrections.  ;-)

Read and enjoy. Jerry will be making this available on the website
in a short time, I'm sure.  :-)
