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.
