Additional OTAG Information
Attention OTAG Members, OTAG information, such as memos and meeting minutes, are now available by Internet E-Mail. This is a faster and more efficient transfer of information for the majority of participating OTAG members and interested parties. A complete listing of OTAG members, including E-Mail addresses, will also be posted on the TTN bulletin board soon to enable you to communicate directly with others. An Internet E-Mail has been set up at Walcoff to receive messages or materials related to workgroup, subgroup, and policy group activities. Please send your responses to: OTAG@Walcoff.com

Re: Is Rich the only one who writes here?
John Bauchman could not be any more correct in his praise for Rich Poirot, although he could have expressed himself a bit more elequently. Fortunately, for the rest of us poor souls juggling 50 balls in the air, the State of Vermont had realized what gains can be made by actually looking at the data collected. Obviously, the work by Rudy Hussar and James Hemby should not be overlooked either. Hey John, how about contributing yourself?
