Yes Jana,
Another reason to have a small committee to check out the different
options and bring info back to the AB. I understand that some feel we
need to wait for the Elections to be over, but we also need to locate
information and be ready to make an educated decision soon. The election
has no bearing on fact finding. Holly will still be NC until the end of
this month and we should be trying to wrap this up instead of waiting,
otherwise we might be pushed into making a decision that won't be
"right" for the Project. Kathy
