[Air-L] Searching for Mentor: Twitter API//Data Collection

Thu Feb 21 06:40:39 PST 2019

just a quick note to those who sent messages after about 9.15 am today
Eastern time - I'm collecting your emails (as is Ian I think) - and we will
be in touch eventually.

So if you don't hear from anyone for a day or two - its not coz we're
ignoring you or the ball has been dropped - there's a lot of us:)
