    Warner:  There is value in having an open discussion of our
    business, even if some may consider this tedious.  We need to go
    through meetings like this just to keeping this party going.  Warner

    willing to try to initiate the process -- try it at least once.  <br />

          Maybe this business meeting start at 7 PM rather than 7:30

    <br />
    <br />
          It helps having people coming from outside for a 7 PM

    Conclusion:  <br />
    <br />
    <br />
          1.  The regular meeting will remain as is with an extra effort
    to get a speaker for the first half hour.  <br />
