   Dear All,
   I think that we will find that 20 m evaporates like the morning dew and should focus on
   the potential for change in climate triggered by change in the THC.  We cannot do all rapid
   climate everywhere and would be ill-advised to try it in that budget.  Remember 3 m has
   gone already.  I agree with the views on the way we should extend judiciously beyond the
   THC expressed by Paul and Keith, the latter pointing out that some wider stuff may shed
   light on the N.Atlantic THC.
   Yours,
   Nick

     Dear All:
             Thanks, Meric & writing team, for putting this together.
     The discussion has already added quite a bit to the material.
     Given this, I would ask that we rethink our schedule for
     revision and sending out the papers for the next meeting. It
     appears as if at least one iteration of e-mail discussion would be
     beneficial, and we have not yet heard from many people. I was
     in the USA earlier this week and will go to Norway on Monday,
     meaning that I'll have little chance to respond until
     later next week. I can see the constraints from the NOClim and
     AGU, but we may want to avoid starting our discussion on 18/12
     from a document which might already be significantly obsolete.
     Regards,
     Jochem
