Hey
Starwood Lurker, I know this is isn't the best idea for the issue- but if you are having problems b/c people aren't getting a timely reply while you are out-of-office, why don't you turn your
PM Option off when you go away on vacation?
That way, if any FTers had a Starwood or College Football issue,
they would have to email you- which I'm sure has an Out-of-Office Reply, and they would subsequently know about your absence.
Just an idea.
