Subject: Use of Boston Coach or other Limosine Service
Date: Thu, 8 Feb 2001 15:08:25 -0800

Effective immediately, no employee is authorized to use Boston Coach or any
other Limosine Service without prior written approval of either Ann-Marie
McGowan, Chris Patelis, Troy Anderson or Barry Soicher, as appropriate.

Taxicabs are about 50% the cost of limos. Our limo bill runs at least $15K a
month. Use of Taxi's or rental cars will cut this expense in half.
