To the President, Executive and Governors - my apologies to all of you - somehow I got the idea that the 6th was Monday and that I should have the meeting open 0800 Monday morning. Monday is of course the 7th - I have no real excuse though my wife has been in Ontario for the last month attending to her mother who came close to death on the operating table and is now recovering in Toronto General. Today my wife returned home from Vancouver.

Obviously I should have opened the meeting at 1100 ET / 0800 PT this morning - I was confused on the date and failed to do so on schedule. This shall NOT happen again - I have reviewed the 'tentative dates' from the last two meetings and am unclear how I made that lapse.

Thanks, Lyle Craver
