Brian,

Although I have never met Ross, he and I have spoken on the phone and emailed each other for about the last 6 months. I will hopefully be speaking to his class of students next year. He is supposed to be sending me a copy of Nexus with your editorial in it. I hope he follows through as I am very interested in seeing it.

I have already made contact with Ross about meeting at the walk. Sorry you can't be there I was looking forward to finally meeting you. I would have been at your award presentation last year at NYU, but it was close to my surgery and I found out about it late.

I have had no contact with the dean, but I will definately look him up.

I believe they are giving "Oral Cancer Walk" tee shirts out at the event to the first 500 registered walkers. Wondering how it would go over if we wore an OFC shirt instead of theirs.
