</div>Well, in Telux, it was traditionally Eddie who gave it except for last year<br>
when Meital gave it. (And couldn't give any other presentation due to her IDF<br>
schedule). I think Eddie will give it this year as well. Anyway, would you<br>
like to give the "Living in a Community" presentation or a different one?<br>
