<DIV>I too offer my apologies for not being able to fully participate on the call (due to a combination of an annoyingly "frozen" computer/server and problems with Skype - I'm in Asia so perhaps the connection wasn't working as well as it should).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In view of the fact that the STI motion was a roll call vote, this probably won't "count" but I wanted to add my support and voice to the unanimous yeas in favor of the motion.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Glen, please let me know if I need to officially record a vote for any others.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks, and happy holidays to everyone,</DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>I remain opposed to the PDP-WT face to face meeting, or even Council consideration of it, given no consensus in that group for such a meeting, and lack of enough information re budgeting and other priorities for Council to make an informed management decision. The BC is not prepared to vote on this issue in this meeting, without further information from Staff and discussion within our Constituency.<o:p></o:p></P>
