Guys,

I really wanted to go to this, but I just cannot take the day off right now. If it were a weekend day, I'd be there. I don't know if you know it or not, but I work for Merrill Lynch and things are pretty crazy around here right now and I just cannot get away.

I would have loved to meet all of you in person, Oh and the keyboards would have been cool too!!

Regards,
Al
