X-Message-Number: 20701 From: "Harvey Newstrom" <> Subject: I'm back! Date: Tue, 24 Dec 2002 01:03:54 -0500 Hello, everybody! I am back home after traveling incommunicado for a while. I really hated to miss speaking at the Alcor conference, but I really needed the business! I trust it went well and hope that someone will fill me in on the details. The business leads I encountered in the past month might lead me into further global travels. I will know in a few weeks. Hopefully I will be able to arrange world-wide access to the Internet next time. Either way, I'm afraid that I will be too busy to be on the ExI Board of Directors, or to maintain the FAQ or the Community Forum on Yahoo as I did before. I will be participating in this and other forums, but in an unofficial capacity from now on. Since I am not representing any organization, I will feel more free to speak my mind, while also feeling less obligation to do so. I am currently facing: a death in the family this week, my 40th birthday in a few months, a slowdown in my business ventures, a pseudo mid-life crisis, a questioning that progress is occurring as rapidly as predicted, increased government and Big Brother, and a real fear that the more things change the more they stay the same. Anyway, I'm back and ready to continue. The same as it ever was... -- Harvey Newstrom, CISSP <http://HarveyNewstrom.com> Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=20701
