I've sent Sally a note but have not gotten a response....don't assume
anything, however. Legal doesn't work by default - nice try.  BT has
asked for a letter from CHM as the next step (am I correct?  In writing
as I need it).     (01)

Why don't you draft something up that I can review with Sally, that I
will sign out on behalf of the Museum.  Meanwhile, we do need Sally's
input on the prospective response to insure it satisfies what is
happening.     (02)

Make sense?    (03)

John and Sally,    (06)

Just a reminder that I'd like to get your feedback by Friday, 
February 3rd on this.  If I don't hear from you by then, I'll assume 
that the wording Simon Garrett at BT proposes looks OK to you, and 
that you'd like Jonathan or me to contact Peter Ratcliffe at BT on 
behalf of CHM about a release letter.    (07)

Sally, any progress yet on a letter from Kathy Gallagher at 
Boeing?  Would you like me to follow up with her directly?  If so, 
please pass her email and phone number on to me and I'll be glad to do
that.    (08)

Best regards,    (09)
