&lt;p&gt;Thank you!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks for making us part of your &amp;#39;farewell tour&amp;#39; with DTR15 last month- the Two Days of Nedness were something I had hoped for prior to the rotation and you did not disappoint. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope the management &amp;#39;lobotomy&amp;#39; left enough over for a guest spot here and there, or a whole new series of blogs from the meetings circuit- wouldn&amp;#39;t that be fun. &amp;nbsp;Hope you&amp;#39;ll still be teaching at some point down the road.&lt;/p&gt;
