Amy-
Thanks for the update on all of these. I get questions about anything that has been around
awhile and it's been awhile since we stopped doing tracking tardy, so I'm just trying to catch up
with folks. If Nobel is an IP than I should have the file somewhere from Ian - I'll look and see
what I can find on this end as well.
Thanks -
Karen
