Lois refers to a meeting regarding the merger - this meeting did happen in RL. The only difference is that in my fic, I moved it two weeks later because that suited the timing of the story!

AND ... Another big thank you to my BRs - Iolanthe and Deja Vu ... and Lynn who read over this part for me before I posted it. All of you made this a better fic - Thanks smile
