I was a bit strong in one of my statements the other day when I mentioned that no prominent biologists use the network. I know for a fact that some do, but was trying to state this in a "tongue-in check" fashion since this statement has been made to me before *by* prominent biologists. I did get a response from a few people 8-) which is why this apology is going out. Sorry if anyone took this the wrong way due to my totally unclear attempt at wry humor which obviously crashed on the rocks. Sincerely, Dave Kristofferson

Sigh ... can't even win when I'm being contrite these days! As was gently pointed out to me, I meant to say "tongue-in-cheek," not "check" (must be a Freudian slip on payday). Looks like "foot-in-mouth" was more appropriate. The joys of being in the public eye ... next thing you'll know I'll fall down some stairs getting off the plane to D.C. TGIF and hope to see some of you in D.C. at BIO-MATRIX or the NIH next week! I will be accessible by e-mail for BIOSCI/GOS business during the latter half of next week, but don't know yet about access to the net while at our George Mason U accomodations. Keep smiling, 8-) Dave -- Sincerely, Dave Kristofferson GenBank On-line Service Manager kristoff@genbank.bio.net
