Hi Hong,

	Yes I had noticed earlier that the ADC by now does appear here and 
there on the Critical Path, and had therefore made some modifications to 
earlier drafts of my slides already.  Namely:

- I used to say ADC (and PA/S) are not on Critical Path, but I deleted 
that statement

- I chose the wording "Critical Path runs through FEB2 production and QC 
testing" carefully.  It avoids saying that nothing else ever appears 
(and then disappears again), just expresses the "main flow" of the 
Critical Path. I hope this is sufficiently nuanced to be OK.
                        
                John
