Hi, All, Happy New Year! The list has been quiet of late, no doubt as we all busily attended to the Holidays. I hope you all survived them happy and rested. Me, I need a vacation to recover from my vacation. Why don't we get the new year discussion off to a good start? Here's what I'm curious about: What are you teaching this semester? What are you researching? Writing an article? Going to any conferences? Anything the list can do to help you prepare? (ie: reviews of books, point you towards sources, be sounding boards for ideas....) Me, I'm going to 4Cs in March. I have not yet even thought about what my presentation will look like. I do know that I don't want to read. Anyone ever seen an interesting conference presentation which wasn't read at you? What did the presenters do? Your listserve management-monkey, Amy
