4. Computer Faire Setup

  Dave Kalish, Mauri Laitinen, and Dan Drake will set up the booth on Thursday, March 17.

8. Burning the Boats

  Everyone in the company who hasn't done it already will send Jack Stuppin a letter giving the conditions under which he's willing to go to work full-time for ADI: the earliest time possible, the minimum subsistence pay, confidence in ADI's continued cash flow, or whatever.
