Adam:
Who to replace palage is a great question.  From your work on the Nominating 
Committee, do you have any suggestions?  Palage was unique (I nominated him 
initially!) and I don't know who could replace him.

I fear if we don't come forward with a name, the Intellectual Property 
Constituency will be more than happy to offer one.
Regards, 
Kathy
