For all of you who have reached out to me to connect, please have a little patience.  LinkedIn is having a problem with my ability to connect, as well as quite a few other members.  I've been having problems since July 13th (wouldn't you know it). So, as the story goes, they are contrite and tell me that the issue will be corrected as quickly as possible.

So, I'm waiting and thank all of you who have reached out to me.
