Mike, I look forward to picking up the conversation at a later date and
look forward to any thoughts, ideas or process structure you may provide on
the subject.

Eric-- I cannot properly engage this article at this time. I plan to use it
in a grad
class starting in January. If others can engage, great. We will simply do a
reprise.
But there is a new set of MCA articles to be voted on, I have a month of
very heavy
local obligations, and want to give the issues careful consideration.
