Please accept my apologies for the multiple messages that you got from me. To the best of my knowledge I think it may have been due to a glitch between my emailer and the internet connection I was using. I was using a hotel wifi connection and my signal was very low--down to one bar. The theory is that my connection was dropping and reconnecting without me noticing it and my email was resetting and resending the email. In my defense about all I can say is that I was rushed to get the information and I did not make sure that I had a stable connection. Again, please accept my apologies and do not make this a reason to drop the listserve. As we transition to the ACS it will become increasingly more important that we maintain our channels of communication, share our collective experience and make sure that we maximize its utility. My figures are also crossed that the problem does not repeat itself with this email but I feel that I needed to let people know what I think had happened. -- Ed Christopher FHWA Resource Center 19900 Governors Drive Olympia Fields, Illinois 60461 708-283-3534 (v) 708-283-3501 (f) 708-574-8131 (cell)
