Dear Martin and Myles,

I was away in Michigan and Hawaii for some time so couldn't contribute to 
the proposal or surrounding discussion.  It's unfortunate as I would have 
made a few points concerning the make-up of the consortium and allocation 
of proposed funds (potential conflicts given our submitted/in preparation 
critiques of both Moberg and Esper; whether there is a need to pay for 
development of wavelet code given that (a) IDL wavelet code already exists, 
and (b) the use of wavelets is, in my view, irrelevant to the outcome of 
the reconstructions; etc.).  Plus we would have wanted some part of the 
funding to help us with our analyses of Esper, Mann and McItrick work 
including alternatives that reduce bias.

As for the workshop, currently 25-29 July is possible for me and I've 
pencilled it into my diary.  But I am currently trying to find dates for 
the final meeting of our EU project SO&P and if the selected dates overlap 
then that will have to take precedence.  But I hope to attend.

Regards

Tim
