That sounds good enough to me, too.    (01)

I'm forwarding this on to John Toole and Sally Abel for their 
feedback and approval.  If they're happy with it, one of us can 
follow up with Peter Ratcliffe.    (02)

John and Sally: Please try to give us your feedback no later than 
Friday, February 3rd., and indicate whether you would like one of us 
or one of you to follow up with BT.    (03)

Thanks for taking BT this far -- great job!    (04)
