If it helps, for the collaboration question, please feel free to add the following: "The detector fabrication capabilities of the UVa group, which is undertaking the fabrication of MTPC prototypes as well as the final detector, have also grown since the original
proposal; this group now includes, in addition to the PI, a senior research scientist, two post-docs, six graduate students, a detector technician and two undergraduate RAs"</div>

Also, in case there is a question about track occupancy during the PAC meeting: as I suggested yesterday, please have a backup slide ready to show at the PAC with the new higher rate, wire based mTPC idea Bogdan suggeted, which we are exploring now. My student
Jacob, who is working on this with Huong now, will be able to provide you with some really nice CAD figures of this before the PAC. </div>
