[Sigkm-l] SIG-KM Monthly Knowledge Exchange

[Michel J. Menou]

Hi Kelly,
I was not looking for anyhting special. Just hoping to contribute to
the discussion.
Yes this is the same F. Woddy Horton as in the URL you mention.
Woody will be back in DC soon <f.w.hortonjr at att.net> if you
want to contact him.  I missed him in Paris yesterday as I was
returning from the Caribbean.

Best regards

KAG> Sorry for late feedback.
