We (Will, Joel, Dick, others, and I) are planning a similar "informal" gathering at the TFG Western Conference in April - this to get the pulse of the community and spur folks to action.

Also planning to hold a 200 level seminar for engineers on a topic yet to be determined. Probably be a Case Study or Advanced Analysis Method.

Next fall in Burlington look for a series of engineering topics - probably 3 on the same day so we can attrach local designers/engineers (many within a 4 hour drive).

We need motion - everybody please writeup a case study to share with the group. Don't be shy. Baby steps needed.
