 Wes,
 
 I am fine with that.  Nick has the authority
 to direct staff he generally does that through you. This
 gets a little out of that scope of authority but, we are not
 spending more money so it shouldn't be a problem and we
 can amend the budget line in August. If it  has to come to
 a vote, I am going to vote to trim to 5.

 okay with me floating the proposal to the LNC.

 that we do continue to produce between 4 and 6 issues each
 year. There are still a lot of members who don't pay
 attention to email or visit or website.
