Charlotte,
Your comments did go to the list.

Dear Fellows, every facilitator and coach has seen your comments. We are
all actively discussing ways to weave these wonderful words into various
segments of the institute. The 99 Fellows don't know how lucky they are to
have y'all to make the way smoother for them.

We are all energized and excited from reading all of these posts. Thanks
so much for being there.
Judy
