One of the bad things about evening access, is that everyone else gets to
articulate thoughts that I am thinking.. but in this case.. I will concur

As an SC, CC, LC, and a Board member, I have NEVER seen Betsy flounder with
her hats :-)) I look forward to the opportunity for the interaction between
all of us. IMHO, this is a good thing.
