    Hello Brotherhood,

    I just want to remind all of you, AIMS (Mr Cheong etc) will be ending their consultation on the 30th Sept. May I ask when are we going to get to see the final 3.B part. I believe if you guys can share it bfr then, this would be a good opportunity for all of us to chip in with our POVs, just a thought.

    Thanks :)

  2. Y2K Says:

    Hi Hello Kitty,

    The recommendations have already been completed i.e Part 3.B.

    That much I can assure you all.

    However, for some reason, they (the brotherhood) will ONLY release it on the 30th Sept 2008 at precisely 2359 hr / I believe it will be released in APICS<STRANGELANDS<JUST STUFF<HERE<INTELLIGENT SINGAPOREAN<PHI BETA KAPPA and in 22 other sites.

    I don’t know why they have scheduled it in that manner, but whatever it is.

    I am certain they have a very good reason for doing so.

    The brotherhood would like to thank the royal creche for funding the ASDF report.

    At a time, when there is so little to cheer about, it is heartening to note, they have come through with a generous donation to make this all possible for all of us in blogosphere.

    Her royal highness, the lady of the lake and her consort, Baroness Ampurna wishes the whole blogosphere good speed and better days.

    This report is in honor of Darkness wherever he is - in the words of the lady of lake,

    “In loving memory, forever more. You will live on in our hearts.”

    Thank you

    Y2K
