Hey Dave,

I thought the same exact thing, and I told the guy ... we just don't
have the fields. He was really pushing for it though. He thought
that between Abbot and Fleming we would be OK. As far as getting
this OK'ed with UPA, that's really his doing it sounds like. Amy
said that if we got the bid, the rec might help us out financially
in obtaining the fields. My main concern is just interest from
within our team in pulling it together once we get the bid.
However, I agree, if it ends up we would have to pay for it, I would
say no mostly because I think we technically still owe several of
our own souls ... but since you own mine i haven't really worried
about payment.
