Dear Jim:  I can't say exactly which persons made the presentation, but it 
was at the meeting in Dulles next to the Dulles International Airport.  I'm 
in Japan now and don't have my 2002 schedule with me.  Ahaa, but I have my 
PC.  Here's the call from Mike Palage:

Date: Tue, 15 Jan 2002 21:09:05 -0500

February Meeting:

It was agreed upon by the Executive Committee after considering numerous
factors that the Constituency will hold a two day meeting February 16-17
(Saturday & Sunday) in Dulles, Virginia. This meeting is tentatively going
to be held at the Dulles Marriott (do not make reservation yet, see below).
As there are some people that expressed interest in a different date and/or
location let me explain the reasoning of the Executive Committee.

I remember well that the staff of SnapNames made a concerted effort to get 
RC members to sign an endorsement of the WLS.
