January seems ambitiously soon, but you are probably right. I wonder what the right first approach is. Maybe we advertise at our pilot schools and at HGSE and the other ed schools in the area. If we even got only 5-10 teacherish types it would be a success and that really shouldn't be hard. Ok Mel you've convinced me :) How long a workshop? What time and day would be best for our audience? We should be able to grab space as part of the FUDCON and general conferences right? -- Caroline Meeks Solution Grove [EMAIL PROTECTED] 617-500-3488 - Office 505-213-3268 - Fax
