I'm not sure that this is the thread I should be posting this on, however, here goes. We are really sorry not to be able to plan to be at Spring Fling this year. If circumstances change nearer the time we will see if we can get a hotel near by or something. Michigan, as you all know is going through some very difficult times. As Bill would say, "Those SUV's have to go." Well, not the SUV's but many other things have gone. +1 is still working, for which we are most grateful. There used to be some 200 engineers in his office, there are now 16. I'm sure you can understand our reluctance to commit to driving out East this year. We shall miss seeing all of you and hope to see some of you at the Tomcatt.

We will miss you both. Here's hoping SOMETHING good starts happening with this economy soon. Lots of uncertainty out there for many folks.
