<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="color:#1F497D">Thanks Milton. I totally agree that the RFP provides excellent guidance in terms of what a final proposal needs to contain. My intent in what I proposed
was to be at a much higher level. I think the mistake I made was to call it a proposal; I didn’t mean a proposal in the sense of what would be sent to the ICG but rather my proposal as to how we might develop our work plan. Sorry for the confusion on that.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
