Re: UPDATED TALLY +++ BALLOT: Interim Meeting Agreement
Jim, in caase ther are any more vote changes, please note that the
conditions for my "conditional approval" have apparantly been satisfied so
my vote should be counted as a YES, making the results 8-2-0. Was there
some chad in my ballot that caused a problem? ;-)
