Thanks Bill, but it was a very short stool for you.  Bill did rearrange our pose so that I was standing on the right and he was on the left.  Not quite sure why he did that, some sort of symbolism I am sure.

It was a great meeting and I want to thank Lori Hartwell for letting me be a part of this group of very special folks for a very important issue.

Thanks for the picture Karol.  It was great to meet you and the others.
