Hi, In response to many of the stated areas regarding staff meetings etc. What is the proposed situation when the "staff" is 1.9 people? It seems that we are doing a lot with four part-time people. In dealing with sustainability there are major concerns keeping up with technology, hiring staff, keeping communications open, BUT if monetary sources are not sustained the other questions are not very applicable. Won't the first areas to discuss be what methods have worked for maintaining sustainability? Mike ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ J.
