Well, in my case the kids are on school break 3/26-3/30, so in order to make
any travel or other plans it would be helpful to know whether I should plan
to be in Chicago on 3/31, if not for the draft then for your birthday...not
that we need to decide right away, but for everyone's benefit (i.e.,
minimizing air fare and other expenses) we oughta strive for consensus as
soon as we can, if we can...
