Yeah... huge apologies to everyone on the absurdly short notice on this.

Due to many other commitments over the past few weeks I was unable
to secure a topical presentation for the meeting.  I would have simply
cancelled, but I felt a need to utilize the venue out of courtesy.   
During
the summer months Emory goes out of their way to provide staff to keep
our space open for us until 9:30 and I wouldn't have been able to give
them adequate notice for releasing their people.

I hope and expect that this "Envisioning the Future of ALE" process will
be an ongoing conversation over the next few months.  I don't think  
there
is any need for rushing in with new ideas or making drastic changes.
I see this as an invitation to evolution not revolution, and I sense  
that
others are feeling some need for ALE to evolve as well.

I will make a point of recording the discussions tonight and making them
available as an mp3 file.  I will also take and distribute minutes as  
I have
gotten fairly competent at this from my recent service as secretary to  
some
other groups.

Will hope to see many of you this evening.

in peace,
Aaron Ruscetta
ALE Events Coordinator (etc)
