cassie recently added me to her 'frinds' list and i was delighted to find your live journal via her 'comments' page. hope you don't mind that i read it all. i really enjoyed the thought provoking content.

i'd like to offer your thoughts on the bridging ceremony at the swuusi planning committee when we meet on the 27th.

with respect, rick
