     Just to keep this documented, after this decision was made by 
Susan,  I started the 07A update, and found that interactions also occur 
on the 29th of June for some of the groups in question.  It seems that 
the team was with Nyayo's, Viola's, Omo's, and Weaver's groups this 
day.  Some of the groups only have a quick census, for VIO and WEA a C 
and an M were observed. Omo's had a long list of interactions. So, for 
this reason, all 4 groups will have census date 06-29-2008.  Tabby will 
make these changes for Omo's and Weaver's group. VIO and NYA already 
have census dates on the 29th.

Susan, does this all seem right to you, this is our decision and we 
should go for it? Or are there more things to consider?

thanks!
Lacey
