Springfield News Stories and Site Visit Review Session

Hi everybody,

Great meeting and site visit yesterday. If you are interested in reading more about some of the people we met and neighborhood issues and politics they discussed, check out the "Springfield News Stories" section at the bottom of the Materials page on the Stellar site. After a little poking around on Factiva, I found a bunch of interesting articles this afternoon. Take a look.

Also, as a follow-up, I mentioned yesterday that we might want to organize an informal discussion to review the "alphabet soup" of acronyms and program names we heard yesterday. Please send me an email to let me know if you would be interested in such a get together.

Finally, as always, feel free to use the Forum section of the Stellar site to post questions and observations.

Thanks,
Steve
