Hi all,

I encourage those of you coming to ENC next week to attend the AMMRL  
meeting Monday night at 7 in the chapel.

We have an exciting and useful program entitled "Bottlenecks and  
Pitfalls in NMR Practice: Working Toward Collective Solutions." The  
theme centers on the notion that by working together more  
effectively, we can reduce the amount of time we waste duplicating  
each other's efforts and solving problems someone else should have  
fixed.

Our five speakers and topics are:
Evgeny Fadeev -	Wikis: How to make them effective for NMR
John Markley - 	Cell-free expression systems: Solving the protein  
sample production problem
Walt Niemzura - 	Software installation: An unnecessary nightmare
Eldon Ulrich - 	Access to pulse sequence codes: Never again ask "Does  
anyone have a copy of ..."
Monika Ivancic - 	Our manuals and user guides: Reducing redundancy by  
working with vendors, programmers, and colleagues

After introductory remarks, we'll begin with very short presentations  
by our speakers/discussion leaders, then diverge into working groups  
on these topics, and finish up by converging to present the finding  
of the working groups.

I look forward to seeing you all there and to working with you for  
the purpose of making our lives easier.

Thanks.

- Josh
