Shannon,
Sounds like right now you and Liz have your hands full. However, I do have another request, at least for the web site. In the past, I believe the web site recognized the winners of the Inny Award each year. When you've gotten the big issues worked out, unless there is some reason not to do this, could this year's Inny Award winner be mentioned somewhere on the web site.
I actually have a motive for this request other than personal egotism. We have had such spectacular results with the Accelerated Learning Program at our school that we are working hard to locate some other schools interested in trying out the approach so we can see whether our results can be replicated. Every bit of publicity we get helps with that effort.

Sorry, Liz. I must have too many conversations in front of me. I'm confusing
myself, too!
Yes, I like the idea of your putting the Editorial Board for BWe at the blog
as well.
Thanks!
