I don't know.  I would at least want to be able to review the work of
my assistants and have some hope of being able to tell if it makes sense.
I appreciate the encouragement, but I'm just not qualified for something

will step up to the plate.  I sure wish I knew what in the world happened
to John Coffman though.  He was doing a great job.
