    3. Oh dear, I hope no one took my comments in regard to Terry as negative. That is not what I meant at all. Terry is wonderful! He does us a tremendous service by adopting the orphan projects. He couldn't possibly be expected to recruit members for each and every orphaned project on top of all he already does. Thanks for clarifying my comments, Diana, so they will be better understood in that context.
