I am; as most people are.  So, glad to see you finally caught on to
that. I am also sensitive about mischaracterizations of what I said
as well.  Here is the quote:

Now, maybe I should have added that the Draft Agenda has all the
details in it and is what I originally setup so there would be a
collaborative place for the people to work.  I NEVER intended this
to be "THE" agenda site.  But the people working on the agenda
needed a place to work in real time.  The oshca.org site is not
available to anyone outside of Minoru for editing.  The delays in
sending them information and getting it posted was unworkable for
the group editing the agenda.

Nowhere did I say I was not responsible.  It would be irresponsible
of me to edit the agenda though.  There are many things that go into
scheduling all that stuff including working with the host.  I was
not involved and therefore do not have the knowledge required to
responsibly make those changes. 

I do not know exactly what Andrew sent in. I do know that originally
we only planned 2 days so maybe that is why his entries were
limited.  Did he (Andrew) request workshops?  If so that is why you
received workshop space instead of presentation space.  Either way I
know that the few times I have browsed the Agenda I have seen 2 OIO
sessions and both were workshops.  I also know that everyone listed
was sent an email asking for updates and changes to be sent to Dr.
Nikki Shaw or Joseph DalMolin SEVERAL WEEKS ago.  It is rude to be
upset when you complain at this point that your email has gone over
24 hours and not been answered when you have had weeks to request
changes.  

Dr. Shaw has been traveling and is now in Boston.  I called Joseph
yesterday about another matter only to find that he is very busy on
a couple of projects that must be finished prior to OSHCA.  I am
certain that one of them will attend to your needs as soon as it is
practical.  

Cheers,
