Not sure how but can we say something more about purpose? Maybe 'provides information about the Agent' does??

Guys,

Thanks for being in the meeting today - whenever Carla enters the Berkeley Zoom, she becomes the master - so when she left, the meeting ended. Can we agree on this definition so I can close the issue? Indicate your response there please!

Adios,

Teresa J. Mayfield-Meyer

Sorry about that, I didn't realize. Just one very minor tweak:

Because websites are not guaranteed to persist, please capture specific data (e.g. birth date) in other available fields.

Thanks!
