On another note, two meetings have occurred but unfortunately I am not including any information from the technical session since my schedule did not give me the opportunity to attend. I was hoping that any member would have provided me with a summary of the previous meetings, but obviously it did not happen.

By now, all of you have received the minutes from the meetings and will have been informed of the changes on the by-laws.

You also have learned that Dolf DeRovira is passing the presidential gavel on to Robert Vogt. Dolf has enlightened us once more with his last letter (see President's letter). Please attend the next meeting and meet our new board of directors.

Welcome to the 5 new members and Congratulations to the 3 upgrades. Read their biographies on the "new members and upgrades" section.

Gerard Mosciano cannot stop impressing me. He is a hot shot at surfing the web. I wish I had read his article about "Car shopping made easy" before buying my car. I am sure I could have gotten a better deal. Read all about it in the cybermania section.

In the Flavor Notes section, Eugene Buday invites us to read his "10 commandments for Flavor Training". It is a very instructive article that I am sure you will enjoy. Please send us all your comments.

We would love to hear from you.
