David: thanks for the outline. I have a message out to Peter Lunenfeld
and hope to hear soon.

With Stephen Corey's event at the GMOA how do you think we might
integrate it ? Could you see it as one of a series of related evening
events as part of the summit kickoff on Thursday night. ( Not knowing
it's contents, I am a little worried about having this seem like an ICE
thing ) On the other hand as not to conflict, would it get too late to
have the Performance by Melissa Fenley (guest artist in
Dance), Troika Ranch, and the a jam session with George Lewis
and various Athens jazz musicians after that. A late night thing.

If so I could see us having a dinner meeting before with
some key guests and partcipants and then have this night unfold,
leaving Peter for Friday night and maybe one other event following it.
Let me know what you think. Thanks again. I really appreciate your
leadership on this and the meeting the other day was good too ! Carmon
