GRANT Team:
Excellent meeting yesterday! The transformational learning has begun. Alignment is the order of the day and it's coherence (Ed Stanulis) will determine our success. Let's see if the information collected can be codified into knowledge which becomes actionable. In other words "fill the empty vessel."
Best,
Jim
"It must be considered that there is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor more doubtful of success, nor dangerous to handle, than to initiate a new order of things. For the reformer has enemies....and only lukewarm defenders."

MHO Team:
HAM Radio Event
On Saturday, April 17, 2004 the McMath-Hulbert Observatory will host an amateur HAM-radio special event called the “Michigan QSO Party”. The object of this HAM- radio event is for amateur radio stations around North America to contact as many Michigan stations in as many Michigan counties as possible.
All 83 Michigan counties will have HAM-stations on the air and active for this event. The McMath-Hulbert Astronomical Society recently activated its amateur Ham-radio club station at the observatory, K8MHO, which will be manned by Tom Hagen (NE9Y), Dave Benham (K8TRF), Mike VanBuren (WD8S), Jim Bunting (K8JV) and John Teagardin (AA8UU). For those who are interested you are welcome to stop by the observatory and experience the fun of live HAM- radio. For more information please contact Dave Benham at the observatory at 248-335-4791 or e-mail him at dodgeboy@mindspring.com.
Best,
Jim
