Thank you so much for your insightful comments about Frank Fear. I wasn’t able to attend his reception and hear your remarks, but I appreciate your thoughts about his wisdom, leadership, and the humorous lens through which he looks at life. He has made so many of us better, including me.

Tom… I enjoyed your paragraphs on “Complacency”. Reminds me of a few years ago when I was chairing a departmental effort on “futuring”.
