      <pre>Colleagues,

The farm is idle.  I'll note that it is difficult to argue for 
additional resources at the lab unless Physics division can routinely 
exploit them at high utilization.  If there really are valleys that 
approach zero, then we will adapt to that reality. If better planning 
and management (by the halls) is needed to keep resources from going to 
waste, and if this is the best step for science, then I am happy to work 
with all of you to address this problem.

regards,

Chip
