Thanks, Steven.  I look forward to it.

And speaking of Irene, dare one hope that the storm's postponement of  
the dedication of the Martin Luther King, Jr., Memorial in Washington  
might provide more time for thoughtful decision-makers to consider the  
long history of heroic struggle that made Dr. King's achievements  
possible?    And that that struggle reached perhaps its pivotal moment  
in the actions that made Fort Monroe the beachhead of freedom?   One  
can only hope.
