Thank you John. I believe 2007 will be a very good year indeed for the AMSAT's. AMSAT-DL is getting closer to being able to make a big push on P3E. Kiwisat nears completion. Sunsat nears completion. Eagle is very close to beginning construction and as P3E gets launched, I believe we are going to be in testing of space systems in vacuum and shake. Next year's symposium, soon to be announced, will be within driving distance of you and it will be an exciting one I believe as we transition to getting done on P3E and you all seeing real Eagle hardware.
I hope we will see you in Pittsburgh next year.

Bob,
If I wrote anything that offended the Engineering Team in any way whatsoever, you have my sincere apology. The AMSAT Engineers literally give of their lives to make this dream possible for the rest of us to enjoy. They deserve nothing but our highest respect and consideration.
Just to make certain their are no hard feelings, my 3 figure donation is on the way to AMSAT.
