[ams] [Fwd: Reservation 2003-11-22]

From: Luella Cruz <luella at eorbit.net>
Date:Tue Dec 30 19:59:56 PST 2003 

OK, so here's the deal, everyone wrote me a check for $275 each, for a
total of 2200. The check that I wrote to Ben was $2233. $30 of it was for
Martin and I since we all had to pay Ben $15 extra for the 5% credit card
processing fee. Where the extra $3 came from, I don't know, maybe some
people rounded up for the conversion.

So for those of you that didn't pay Ben %15 extra, then you need to pay
him $15 plus $2.52 ($17.52 total) for his credit card's 1% international
charge thing.

And $16 to Zannie if you haven't already...
