[Gary Lang]

You may be right, mpg.

Can anyone from WebCom answer? My response would be "you're in charge,
you've seen the budget, go!"

feel/understand that they have a mandate to go off and Make Something
Happen, and (corrspondingly) are there people ready to sign up for such
a task?  I believe the answer to the latter is yes, but I'm not sure on
the former.

(Am not trying to put down Jason's team here -- for my own part, I know
that I've been skittish at times to Just Go Do Something because I
wasn't sure I had Proper Authority and Mandate to do so.  Getting
better, though :-)
