[OSList] After the OS event

[Lisa Heft]

Many thanks, wonderful Dicky, and a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Buijs.
I have indeed sent this lovely invitation for conversation to the  
client I am talking with - and will send you a note directly about  
that, Dicky and Ms. Buijs.
A deep bow to you both for your wonderful support of my client in  
their exploration about using Open Space,
Lisa
