Hello, Ginny, and interested others:

Yesterday in Rio, 30 degrees C. Today in NJ, heavy snow and 0. Changes! 

Please expect an update to "updates-lfrf" (expect you're all subscribed!)
very soon. GHS just returned from a first tour of Brazilian sites and
meetings with people and VERY excited about the visual and educational
potential. LFRF should be a >great< way to bring key life scieces pricinples
to life, as well as a wonderful virtual adventure. 

And, yes, you should expect the TG etc. to be in hand at least one month in
advance: we're hoping for even earlier. More soon...
