Karen,
Are they just presenting the plan or will they also be asking for input from the public?

I'm guessing that by asking the public to "participate" they will be asking for / inviting / allowing public input.... just my $.02, though...........

I'm up for going to the REI in downtown Seattle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Marty - I put it on the calendar :D
