[il-talk] We need more voices

[Cathy Randall]

I just called Kirk's office for the first time today and Andrew Adair is in 
a meeting.  I gave my comments, for the fourth time, and said I will call 
back after lunch to try and talk with him!
                                                                             
    Cathy
