Hi Mike,

Here is the biweekly report from Physics. I use initials for group members as usual: AB=Alex Bogacz, DD=Dave Douglas, CT=Chris Tennant, AC=Alex Castilla, RG=Randy Gamage, TS=Todd Satogata. Apologies for running a bit late on this; I got back from Cincy about 8 PM last night and just crashed. I'll be around today and will be at the biweekly leadership meeting though.
