Drat! I have another meeting that I scheduled then. How often are these scheduled? Melanie I did mail an idea to you which you may not run but if you see potential and can provide some direction I be happy to hear. A meeting is always possible.
Thank you, Paul. I did receive the idea you mailed, and I hope to review it more carefully after our March print issue is put to bed. By the way, if you want to have a conversation with me directly, it might be better to send me an email: [email protected]. Leaving a comment on a post like this is part of a public conversation, and ideally those conversations are about the content of the post.
