Greg, I didn't know Mike Claeys was leaving. First I agree with everything you said.He has always been special to me---patient, informative and a most wonderful person. I wish Mike the very best. The last time I was in New York we had coffee and a good conversation. Mike was always available.For those of you who weren't fortunate to know Mike I suggest you read his tribute to Sen. Wellstone----to me it shows what a sensitive and terrific guy he is. My best to Mike and his fiancee.
