Agreed.  Please read my statement as light a fire under getting a committee 
established and then moving.  But to be clear, I view the finance committee as 
existing now with a member of 1.  Just like when I started with fundraising.  
As long as you are a President's committee, all you need is Sam's blessing and 
you can spread your wings a bit to get things moving.  There are certain 
shackles we know about like the endowment that the board has preempted from 
anyone else at the current time. 

Regards,
KAM
