Hi all,
Very sorry for the delay in posting. I had some health issues yesterday and went to bed early – totally forgetting to post until just now. I really hope this is a correct list but the omens are fairly bad -- forgetting to post, pouring down rain outside, but I'm hoping everything is well. Forgive any formatting problems. I had a struggle to post it correctly.
Anyway,we have 14 definitions to choose from, only one of which is the right one. Please vote for two of these lovely definitions before 10 p.m. CDT on Wednesday June 5. That’s 11 p.m. EDT, same day. 4 a.m. on Thursday June 6 GMT. I'm extending the deadline a bit because I have to give a talk on Wednesday evening.
Happy voting!
Nancy
