Hi All,

Thanks for the feedback!  So glad to see there's interest.

Ruth, with many thanks, I will take you up on your offer to schedule a
meeting.

I'll put together some talking points for an intro session, but of course
if anyone has any particular topics or questions in mind, I'm all ears.

Thanks,

-b
