Phil and David If we break the high temperature record this week, we really should be prepared to capitalize on this press-wise. How about we draft a short press release? This has been a classic global warming summer circulation-wise so we can dress the story up a bit. I'm around Thursday-Friday this week but only briefly Wednesday. Either of you in Wednesday in case it breaks then? Mick [Kelly] </blockquote>
