Sorry Aprel, Lisa, and everyone-
This one is my fault. I responded to the symposium
announcement with a question, and was glad to have the
answer. I should have just asked Aprel, and not
included the whole list, but I thought others might
have a similar question.
I plan to attend and I'm really sorry and embarrassed
for any any friction this may have caused. =-o
I think the Center's work sounds admirable and
valuable, and I'd like to be on the mailing list
myself (as I also don't think we should have AWARE's
list signed up on other lists). As Lisa said, those
who are on the list can forward anything that seems
appropriate. I hope these two groups can work
together in some way.
