Guys, 

Robert has been working on this forever! I hate to see this fall apart after all his hard work and organization. I was originally planning on taking the bus to Golden. If a couple of us do that, can we save this valuable tour?

>Tomorrow, a quorum of council members are going on a tour of NREL arranged kindly by Mr Westby, a retired emerita from NREL.  Unfortunately this meeting was not publicly noticed and thus the general public has no knowledge of this meeting nor the ability to attend. Then last night after council, I learned several individuals from a special interest group would be carpooling this quorum of council members to NREL.  While I appreciate the good intentions of all, I request that the tour to NREL scheduled for tomorrow morning be rescheduled to a date where the tour is publicly noticed properly.

Living in the here and now, we are awash with sensations of the present, memories of the past, and expectations and fears for the future. Our actions are not determined by any one cause; they are the fulfillment of who we are at that particular moment.  After that moment passes, we continue to evolve, to change, and our memories of that moment inevitably change with us as we live with the consequences of our past actions, consequences we were unaware of at the time."
