I'm pleased I didn't miss this, but there seems to be a bit of a delay in
communication to Oz. IS it peculiar to the Pacific rim? I didn't get this
message until after the meeting was supposed to be on. It was quite a
struggle to get there for a 1 a.m. meeting - can we make last minute changes
like this obvious by leaving a note in the Office/

Cheers
