Jeff,

Let me know what you think of this guy. Wade Cline and Tim Det. are both
high on him. Jeff Donahue is not so sure but will meet with him on Friday.
During my lunch with Jeff, we discussed that we need a Corp. Dev guy
dedicated to us full time but if he reported to him, that would be great. I
think we could use that co-ordination with his group as long as we didn't get
a part time guy in the process. He could also report to us obviously (like
Larry) but i think in this case a dual role makes a lot of sense. What do
you think?

If you like Don, he could be an immediate candidate to start doing our Corp
Dev work, but that is of course not the best reason. I thought he was all
right and he did have a good understanding of our products and is an
innovative thinker. He has also worked as a trader and although it doesn't
seem possible by his personality, having some background is a plus.

Mike
