Looks like we'll be needing dinner and sleeping bags, along with breakfast 
and lunch.

Lara,

Here are some of the topics to cover with you.
This is an informal list; if there are items you want to add or 
subtract, let's do so by all means.

I would like to have a computer handy with SpectrumGuide loaded onto 
it. I normally use a blackboard or whiteboard.

Benn Kobb
