Nor should you be expected to, Lloyd... I am just grateful that you

the chairmanship and that we have a committee that is willing to

having read the past GGC's complaints about minor issues, makes y'all a

Thanks, but I certainly couldn't have done it alone. The committee
member are great to work with and in those instances when differences
of opinions came up, we were able to find that compromise that made it
all work smoothly.

Lloyd, I think you and the committee members are doing a first-rate job.
And being former Navy (like my wife and brother) gives you a lot of respect
in pulling differing factors together.

One thing I would like to suggest to the TA's who are in the bidding this
year: pay attention to the flames of the past. You can learn from those
experiences and improve overall customer service. It's impossible to think
of everything, sure, and this is a huge job with lots of hours put in for
not much monetary compensation. You may as well have some fun while you're
at it.
