TO ALL YOU CALIFORNIANS - WE ARE PLANNING TO RESPOND TO A RFP ISSUED BY
CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE. THERE IS A STATEMENT IN THE
NOTICE THAT DEVIATIONS FROM THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS NOTED HEREIN ARE NOT
NEGOTIABLE. HAVE DISCUSSED THIS BRIEFLY WITH THE FOLKS IN CALIF AND THEY STATE
YES THAT IS SO.  THEY WANT TO CLAIM OWNERSHIP OF ANY PATENTS AND WE MUST OBTAIN
EXPRESSED WRITTEN CONSENT FROM THEM FOR PUBLISHING. DO YOU FOLKS OUT THERE HAVE
AGREEMENTS WITHH CONDITIONS OTHER THAN THESE. ASIDE FROM HAVING MORE FORMS TO
COMPLETE THAN CARTER HAS LIVER PILLS THESE TERMS ARE MOST EXTREME FROM A STATE
AGENCY. ANY ADVICE. CAROL COOK
