We DID mention the internet access issue at the 11/17/06 call. To the
extent possible, it will be provided. Sometimes, because of the rules
for that particular venue, we cannot guarantee it. Case in point: Dept.
of ED would NOT guarantee that we would have internet access for
everyone, since they only had one "official" link in the room, which we
used at the podium for presentations. As things worked out, however, I
think people's wishes were met.



Thanks for the comment.
