		<description>&lt;p&gt;Thanks, Paul, for your kind mention. I apologize that I was unable to be the first from ICA to connect with you personally, but I am delighted that you spoke with Ryan. Any of our team would have treated you equally well.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I believe that business is the primary vehicle by which we are &quot;called&quot; to build relationships, for it is through commerce that we interact with others outside of our families. (OK, Perhaps social networking is starting to change that, but I think that the principle still applies.)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So, there&#039;s a good business element - who are we working for? Customer? The Lord? Self? and there&#039;s a common sense element: &quot;what&#039;s good business?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this day and age with blogs and the immediacy of Twitter not building relationships is simply bad business.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I look forward to speaking with you in person.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Eric&lt;/p&gt;
