<DIV><FONT size=4>I too, have received on of those certified letters. =
It put me
in orbit, because I don't want to be without insurance for all of my =

pulse
of all things PTG), and she told me that she had talked to the =
agent in
Seattle and was assured that there are two insurance carriers being =
considered
and we will definately have a new carrier/policy, well before the Nov.
deadline.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Hi, List and Sandy!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I received a certified letter from Safeco Insurance today stating =
that
the PTG Business Insurance group policy would not be renewed. =
Has anyone
else heard this, and have you heard of a replacement being =
considered? I
(and I am assuming all of us) have until Nov. 1 to find another
carrier. At least that's when I normally renew each year. I =
would
certainly hope that another group policy carrier could be found.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any word on this from anyone?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks.</DIV>
