<br><font><span style="line-height:normal;background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)">Hi Grace,<br><br>Welcome back to the list. Your accomplishments are quite impressive and I'm sure you'll be able to help us with the rather unique perspective of someone who has been involved in both human rights and consumer protection.<br>
<br>A special thanks for volunteering to serve on the charter rewrite committee. It's a big job but we have some great people. I'm really looking forward to working with yourself, a Kenyan lawyer, Olga, a Russian lawyer and even a few nonlawyers in Tapani and our fearless coordinator Bill. This committee excites me more than any of the others I'm on because we're really going to be able to craft a sustainable future going forward for the NCUC. Look forward to meeting you and I can't wait to get started with the work!<br>

<br>Welcome back to the list. Your accomplishments are quite impressive and I'm sure you'll be able to help us with the rather unique perspective of someone who has been involved in both human rights and consumer protection.<br>
<br>A special thanks for volunteering to serve on the charter rewrite committee. It's a big job but we have some great people. I'm really looking forward to working with yourself, a Kenyan lawyer, Olga, a Russian lawyer and even a few nonlawyers in Tapani and our fearless coordinator Bill. This committee excites me more than any of the others I'm on because we're really going to be able to craft a sustainable future going forward for the NCUC. Look forward to meeting you and I can't wait to get started with the work!<br>
