Hi Ira,

Thank you for sharing your information with us. As Doug Fogg, our COO,
stated, your presentation "exceeded expectations".

I never saw this QIAGEN ad, but I can see why it won the award.

FYI, after your presentation, our customer service has been more sales
oriented. I think that we will have a record phone sales month ahead of us.
Thanks.

It was great seeing you again. A workshop seems like a next step for us. I
would think that something in May would be good.

Let's plan on an April connection to discuss the next step.

Terry Carmichael
VP, Marketing and Sales
