Hi Mel,

Talked to Matt.  I think we'll take a pass on him, he doesn't sound too
available.  The more I think about it, we will need someone full time,
onsite, and as soon as possible.

I'll see about setting something up for the end of the week for Chuck
to come in and talk to a wider audience.

I don't suppose you have anyone else?

Thanks,

a
