Dear Friammers,
The Conclave is on schedule. Still negotiating to get Cardinals Standish and Schiltz in from Australia and Peru (?) respectively. We will, of course, have to elect a new FRIAM pope before we disband on Saturday. Which color smoke do we put up George’s chimney? I never can remember. Perhaps we should set up a computer in a side room so people can call in from the diaspora? Renew old acquaintances. As the person who will be justifiably be to blame we end up like dogs fighting over Merle’s two loaves of fine bread, I am hoping that we can have a little chat tomorrow about who’s bringing what. It’s those long tails on the binomial distribution I worry about. Hard to eat a long tail.
