[p2tech] So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Let's all hope too that Liz Harriman will stay on P2Tech, and on the
job, for her contributions over the years have been enormously positive.
For those of you who don't know: UMass Lowell's TURI, an essential part
of the MA TURA program, has not yet received funding for the next fiscal
year.  There is still hope for funding through a supplemental budget but
about all that can be done within MA has been done.  If any of you feel
the desire to act, please send your considered opinion to the
appropriate parties.  For further discussion please contact TURI or
myself.  I'm sure all of you who work for government know that my
posting a message like this is political risky, but this seems like an
emergency to me.

Whoa!   "knowledge capture and preservation, the semantic web, and
computer modeling of social behavior. "  It sounds fascinating,
futuristic, and powerful enough that I'm hoping the FBI isn't sponsoring
it....  Seriously, it sounds full of possibilities and I can't think of
anyone better to connect it to rea world problems  and viable solutions!

I hope you are going to stay on P2tech as a hobby - your contributions
are always excellent.  Thank-you for your many pearls of wisdom and
nuggets of expertise over the years!  Too bad you are too far away to go
out for a drink and celebrate the many productive accomplishments of
Chemalliance!

Liz
