I agree-Rick, when you have time, could you add these things to our web
site? Is everybody down with that?
Like a lot of you, I'm pretty tired of after-work meetings at the
moment, but Nancy's email persuaded me to show up at 5:30 today. (Of
course, just because we tell the local media about an event doesn't ever
mean they'll show, but let's hope this is controversial enough that they
will.)
