I was not directly...but was keeping up to speed on what was happening in IMU in case I was needed...talked with our DOS (who got the call and ICed until it was handed off to a local IC) a few times too.

Did you see the Press Conference that Mark did after?

I thought he did a fantastic job of representing TNWG.

Yes, I did. I was still at the airfield when it came on TV live. It was originally on the NewsChannel 9 website, but they replaced it with the above story.

He did do a good job.
