    Sounds fine to talk after the conference. I'm going to ALA on Sat. all day; do you want to try to meet up there? Or will you be too busy there to take any time away?

    Debbie - How are you? Big news - with the recent influx of Californians to the Ning I created a BRAND SPANKIN' New California Educator Group - a good time will be had by all there. The group is designed to connect CA educators. You can use that space to share events, resources and network!

    Hope the publicaion is going well for y'all - I still have my eyes on the film issue!

    Debbie - thanks for writing - yeah, I want to do a thing short films "Better than YouTube?" Something like that - I'm going to work it up in early Nov as I'm presenting on that topic at NCTE in NOV. BTW - did you see this smutty short film collection - crack up. I really don't know if I could tell a teacher to use them but they are very educational.
