Ok, guys.  This has dragged on for almost a month with no output.  Vlad
has discussed it with me, and I know he did some work looking at old proofs
and thinking about what should be on the new ones.  I've heard nothing from
the membership side of things, which really is the point.

We've exhausted IAP and everyone's major chunk of free time.  We've missed
any chance to negotiate with the ARC to put preprinted cards in whatever
packet freshman advisors get.  Len is unavailable from Friday until after
classes start, so we've lost the chance to have this print job be a training
or qualifying run.  There are five days between now and Registration Day,
which seriously decreases the chances of convincing other Press Ops to block
out time in their schedules to help me with the job, and it's a rather long
job.

I've tried not to impose on other people's schedules, and I know that we
all have other things on our minds, but if I don't have a finalized request
for us to print something before I get out of work tomorrow, I'm not going
to plan on trying to do this job.
