<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:black">I look forward to seeing you next week in Scottsdale.  The official materials for our meeting will be posted and available as usual.  Knowing that you are an unusually
 eager and excited, if not excitable, group, I attach the Agenda and associated materials here for your review and analysis.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 you didn’t write and suggest we talk about it so I just didn’t know.  Please tell me!)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

 appreciate in advance those of you whose joining in make our committee meetings so thoughtful and lively.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
