Close call

A couple of weeks ago (hard to believe it was that recent) I was worried about a work conflict with the planned trip. It looks like I can rest easy.

A week ago yesterday the anticipated call for members for the new Smart Grid committee went out and within the hour I had submitted my application. Yesterday an e-mail confirming the receipt of all required forms arrived, and noted that the committee roster will be approved the first week of August. The committee will not be able to have its face-to-face kickoff meeting (in Atlanta) until well after I am back.
