Whitey, just wanted to say thanks for joining us in the meeting last Thursday. But seriously, thanks for suggesting we look at your guys as you seem to have a pretty nice facility. Have fun with EMC when you visit them. They do some business with us as well and I know they are always offering up dinners to managers around here. Might as well take advantage of it while you can! -Jeff ---

Whitey, they let you go early, and are paying for the hotel for those nights even though you’re not working during the beginning of the week? I tried to book my trip to LA Wed-Wed instead of Mon-Fri, and they didn’t go for it because they don’t want to pay for my hotel and rental car over the weekend. ---
