    Susan (and all),

    I've said it many times, so I'll say it again, the AM Workshop (98) was the
    greatest professional experiance in my 31 years of teaching.

    Evelyn and I are still using our lesson plan and I've just finished the
    latest update of the web site we created out of it.

    You can check it out by clicking on the address in my signature.

    We now have 70+ oral history interviews and this year I hope to plug in
    another 60.
