Hi Corey and Seth,

This is going to be a grant-funded project, so my time frame is uncertain,
assuming we get funded.  For now I wanted to know what was possible and
what challenges there might be.  I'm sure later down the road I will be
back with questions.  I want to thank you for your help - it's been a huge
help.

Best,

Beth
