EMAIL DETAILS

George, there are a few typos in the second paragraph and it doesn’t read perfectly. I am happy to sign but if you think we should make those edits before let me know. At this point, making the edits and signing tomorrow isn’t a big deal but I defer to others.

Also, Marcelle’s email address is only listed as “@burnhamasset.com <http://burnhamasset.com/>” and should be “mdevine@burnhamasset.com <mailto:mdevine@burnhamasset.com>”

Should we make those edits to clean it up?
