I want to thank everyone for all the expressions of concern for those of us
here in OK. The convention-goers are fine.... but we don't know about all
the members of the local group. It's been a wild experience..... and we're
pretty jumpy. More on the tornado when we can get more information.... and
learn whether people are safe. I need to stress that those in the hotel are
just fine..... but I absolutely don't want to be flippant since this city and
surrounding area are flattened and, as I said, we don't know how everyone is.
A short report from the Board meeting tonight..... cool stuff going on, not
the least of which is Jay Hudson's proposal to establish an electronic
'commerce' (<--- not the right word, but I'm tired) committee, to explore how
AIS can utilize the internet to all of our benefits.....
One other thing that came up was the AIS Bulletin indexing project that is
underway. Editor Terry Aitken reported that he has two people working on
entering data, and that the project would go quicker with more data entry
folks. Clarence asked that I open the Kathyguest Recruiting Service to look
for volunteers for data entry for this valuable project.... getting all the
Bulletins indexed. Has to be Windows format (for now). Anyone who can take
on some piece of this, raise your hand and I'll submit your name.
That's all for now.... I'm beat.
Oh, John I Jones hisownself has showed up..... with his fabulous teeshirts
(Electronic World of Iris) and his even MORE spectacular wife, Joanne.
See you tomorrow. Please wish us calm skies.
