FYI comment: I am quite unhappy that CA-D is now engaging in yet another round of possible postponing of the run. I intend to post a statemnt to T.Kirk and the other exp that this is quite unacceptable after a meeting just two weeks ago where it was argued that one month would be reasonable, and no longer would jeorpadize a full 31 week run. regards Flemming ---------------------------------------------------------------- Flemming Videbaek Physics Department Brookhaven National Laboratory e-mail: videbaek@bnl.gov phone: 631-344-4106 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kin Yip" <kinyip@bnl.gov> To: <ogould@bnl.gov> Cc: "Wlodek Guryn" <guryn@bnl.gov>; "Steve Peggs" <peggs@bnl.gov>; "Axel Drees" <drees@skipper.physics.sunysb.edu>; "Robert Pak" <Robert.Pak@bnl.gov>; "Dana Beavis" <beavis@bnl.gov>; "Dejan Trbojevic" <dejan@bnl.gov>; "Fulvia Pilat" <pilat@bnl.gov>; "Mike Harrison" <harrison@bnl.gov>; "Steve Tepikian" <tepikian@bnl.gov>; "Waldo MacKay" <mackay@bnl.gov>; "Angelika Drees" <drees@bnl.gov>; "Vadim Ptitsyn" <vadimp@bnl.gov>; "Ted D'Ottavio" <dottavio@bnl.gov>; "Roger Katz" <rak@bnl.gov>; "John Morris" <jtm@bnl.gov>; "Peter Ingrassia" <ingrassia@bnl.gov>; "Paul Sampson" <sampson@bnl.gov>; "Mei Bai" <mbai@bnl.gov>; "Bruce Gibbard" <gibbard@bnl.gov>; "Leif Ahrens" <ahrens@bnl.gov>; "Woody Glenn" <jglenn@bnl.gov>; "John Gould" <gould@bnl.gov>; "Thomas Roser" <roser@bnl.gov>; "Andy McNerney" <mcnerney@bnl.gov>; "Marion Heimerle" <heimerle@bnl.gov>; ""Kevin A.
