You will have noticed the subtle mention here of the Website. This

has beencompletely redesigned and the announcements section already

has carried items of the type that willbe circulated to the CFHlist in the

future. Take a look and let us know if you have suggestions for thesite.

John Roney (Sacred Heart) andJay Green (Kent State) have volunteered a

number of suggestions and proposals for the CFHHome Page that we will

be working on in the near future (in all of those idle moments thatnow

plague us). Others are welcomed to help usdecide what kinds of things

we can include as well asto determine what would be helpful to the CFH

and in making the work of the CFH more widely known.
