Well, let's see what we can do.  The membership expressed its desire to 
renew the online activity during the Business Meeting in Vancouver, and 
we'll follow the membership's wishes!

A reality has been that Charles & I have moderated things and prompted a 
good deal of discussion, but we're also both in the "age & stage" with 
children, the uphill career path, and such...  Charles manages the 
Twitter account daily for short materials, and the lengthier (and 
fuller) discussions of the listserv seem to have stilled since London -- 
that is, of course, open to change.

All best,
James
