- (from ctalbert): We have only two weeks left in the quarter. And those weeks include christmas and new year's. So, ensure all things that are on track are really on track. If there's anything that isn't you should have let me know a week ago. If something has changed, let me know, call my cell (it's in the phonebook).
- I've marked status on our goals, feel free to update.
