Thanks, Paul. So far the SfAA Ning community seems like just another place to look for e-mail. I have it set up so I get a message to go look there for a new message, have to remember my user name and password. That is a pain. On the other hand, I have a folder set up just for your messages that e-mails automatically go into if you e-mail me directly. I think the main advantage to the SfAA community may be if people post more papers, videos, photos, etc. on it. However, I could do that on my business website. Oh, well, not everyone has their own website (yet) and this is a nice way to get like-minded people together.

Hi, Paul. It's good to hear from you. How are things going in NOLA and at the Touro Infirmary? I'm planning to attend AEA this year after missing it the last two years because of direct time conflicts. I miss the people there. Will you be coming to AEA this year? I've about given up on AAA (didn't renew my membership for 2007 -- at least not yet), but plan on keeping up my SfAA membership.
I'm looking for more contracts with work to start next fall. Please let me know if you hear of anything interesting that could use program evaluation, or research (qualitative or quantitative or computer mapping) expertise -- maybe in NOLA?
Warm Regards,
Steve
