Thanks for all your notes, orlando. I read them all with great interest... and envy!

Sorry we missed it this year. Not sure if we'll make it to San Fran in '06, but NYC in '07 is looking good. Hope to see you then!

Cheers,

Otis

Let's plan for NY in 07 or sometime in Puerto Rico before. Sorry to missed your party last month!
