Dialogue
Ms. Orly: Do you know if Bill has gotten around to starting on the Davison project yet?
Mr. Perkins: I'm not sure. I think he's still up to his ears in work on the computer program. Do you want me to get after him?
Ms. O: Maybe you should. On the other hand, perhaps I'll have Dave take some of the routine work off his hands.
Mr. P: That would be a good idea. Then Bill will be free to get going on the Davison thing.
