    	Hi,
    
    I am available Tuesday afternoon.
    
    I was working on a long message to the list of participants in the MC
    session, asking them for comments on some ideas for organization.  I
    postponed sending it to inquire about the address of one person which I
    was missing, and by the time the answer came, the sky had fallen and I
    was distracted by other matters.  I will complete it and send it out
    today.
    
    
    Dave
