Tiny Perfusion Letter #108

Tiny Perfusion Letter

Something went "poof" at Tinyletter.com yesterday and the last newsletter was lost in virtual space. It was last seen at Alpha Centauri, looking for some readers.

Luckily, we keep records of what we send out, so here's TPL #108 for you.

Better late than never

Enjoy and Share
