I would like to explicitly endorse Bill Farrow for Steering Committee. 
He is an inspiration to us all and a powerhouse of activity. Just about 
the time that I was expecting we would need to pick the up slack for 
him, seeing as he has a newborn baby, he kicked it up a notch. Much of 
my time as Chair has involved getting out of Bill's way and cheering him on.

Vote for Bill Farrow.

Kind regards,
