Thank you so much to everyone for their effort on this. I would have been
there Tuesday morning but could not due to a work conflict.

I think a quick email of thank you to Windermere and KMTT (their cosponsor)
for their wisdom on this is in order. I think a very honest oversight was
made, and I think it probably was very difficult for them to change course given
the timing and level of investment (marketing and otherwise) they had into the
event. These sorts of things take on a life of their own and it can be hard
to stop them even when you're in charge! I went to high school with Geoff
Wood, president of Windermere and emailed them over the weekend and asked them to
reconsider - and it was clear at to me at that point they were seeing they
might have to shift gears. Kudos to these two companies!
