As I recover from CEDA Nationals, I have looked forward to thanking those 
responsible for an outstanding event.  Since we began the process a year ago, 
Jackie Massey and his phenomenal support folks have worked tirelessly and 
selflessly to provide us with a memorable experience.  They truly rolled out 
the red carpet and welcomed CEDA with unequaled hospitality, generosity and 
support.  OU was genuinely pleased to welcome us, and excited about the 
positive feedback and gratitude they received from so many members of our 
community.  Their motivation was to give us the best CEDA Nationals ever.  OU 
did a great job of hosting us.  They generously provided wonderful facilities, 
breakfast, goodies, and water, T Shirts, timers, and other gifts, and so much 
more.  So I hope you will join me in thanking The University of Oklahoma for 
being a fantastic host.  Send your letters of appreciation to Jackie, or to 
President Boren's office.
 
In return for a phenomenal job as host, as a community, we did a poor job of 
respecting the OU facilities.  In addition to leaving rooms generally messy, 
you probably know already that hanging digital projectors were taken from 
Carson 123 and Adams 100.  I have just learned that two more projectors have 
turned up missing, those from Felgar 319 and 334.  If you have any information 
about these missing projectors, please contact me or Jackie ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 
 These are valuable pieces of equipment, and respresent a  significant loss.  
 
On Sunday, OU was considering submitting a bid to host again.  Why any 
institution would take on such a thankless job, I do not know.  After this 
considerable loss, we will be lucky to ever find any host.  Thank you for your 
help.
