The schedule reminders can be changed in such a way fairly easily;
however, each team would need to know what other reminders are useful
to them, other than REALLY BIG reminders (things like Alpha, Beta,
etc.) which they are likely already getting.  I will be going through
the "How is your schedule?" routine with each group individually over
the next few weeks, so there will be time to figure that stuff out.

Ideally, we'd also be using the logistics@ list to keep track of these
things, and folks who were needing to be on top of cross-team
interactions would be using it as a place to talk. (Feel free to sign
up!)

AND NOW, back to your regularly scheduled "how to fix spins" thread....
