The RSVP is an opportunity to suggest a couple of small awards such things as "The Doctor Joe Baptista Award for least enlightening post of 2001", and the "Sid Jones award for Cisco CEF - Customer Enragement Feature of 2001".

It seems I've made something of an impression here. Always nice to know. However - you must change the awards name. I have not given permission for my name to be used in any way with any award to you or to Cisco Technologies.

Now if you or Cisco Technologies wish to submit a proposal on the use of my name I will consider it. However - at this time I want you to make it clear to the group that I have nothing to do with this award and you are order to immediately cease any and all usage of my name in association with this project.
