I have been away from the forum because of the time required with the additional job. I helped establish another exciting start-up company and have been selected to lead the company in its frist year of operation and was consumed by all the legal leg work, write-ups, analysis. While it is exciting and challenging, I get paid at $1/month, which on the bright side is at least 12 times better than what Steve Jobs used to get during the reorganization of his company.

I would tell you more about the new company much later when all the legwork has stabilized and everything is in motion and have a nice flow. So I will pop in and out every now and then. Suffice it to say that one small portion of the company's research work is to help the citrus industry, so the excitement in me.

Perhaps this time, with the new company, I would be able to re-imburse my expenses in attending the Citrus Expo back in the East, so I am looking forward to meeting a lot of fellow citrus forum members over there. For sure, I will be able to bring citrus wines for the tasting, and if wine tasting is allowed at the venue, then you won't be disappointed.

Thanks Joan! I sure wish the new company will be able to survive these times. It is hard to form one amidst the crisis.
