    another “forum”? ?

      Yes, as previously announced. Private groups (Fauntleroy UCC this week, Chamber of Commerce a week and a half ago) are really stepping up trying to help people get answers, if they are sincerely interested. Unfortunately, we will not be able to cover this one, so I hope everyone with questions will be there. – TR
