Hi Ehren, have been enjoying your posts/comments/emails lately, and am glad you and Peter had a chance to talk last week. I'm writing to make sure you caught the conference call announcements -- tomorrow and Friday. Late notice, but hope you can attend (though comprehensive notes will be posted afterwards as always).

Don't hesitate to use those two comment fields for "would like to discuss X" and other specific requests/thoughts.

Talk to you soon ~

Christine
