current MG12 ICC list

what is this committee? [bob jantzen is its chair: robert.jantzen@villanova.edu]

why is your full name important?

mass emails:

  1. June 2008 [Sent first en masse to the then current list from MG11, then sent 1 by 1 personally to each of those who did not respond by myself, except for some members of the US when my energy expired, this is very frustrating: people who have responded as of July 2, 2009].

With today's vicious spam and spam blocker environment coupled with universally high email volume into our inboxes together with periodic email address changes as institutions evolve, it is really difficult to re-establish contact with former members of this committee and to invite new members, even once their email is finally known to be correct! One of the consequences of data smog. If you wish to have your name removed from this list, just email bob.

If I could have one wish, it would be that everyone would properly use their email subject headings to give some approximate indication of the contents of the message, so that when I try to find it again in my thousands of archived emails, I have some hope of succeeding. In particular "MG12" should appear somewhere in the header at a very minimum if it relates to this conference, but more specific description is very helpful! [I cannot even get the organizers to follow this advice!]
