Hey guys, that was kind of unkind not telling the whole story,
particularly since it was reported in the news.  We were given the names
on April 3, not 30 March that was listed on the schedule.  I also told
Robyn that it generally takes a week, and Friday was a holiday.  Erin is
sending out the results now.
