I'd say yes, but I have a meeting...
Because I do have a 8:30-9 pm meeting (roughly, anyway), it just happens to be about the SCA-WI issue. I probably should've told him it was about audits and the division of finances for a large national non-profit, which happens to be true, though I expect I'm going to be getting a status update, not contributing a whole lot to the overall discussion.
