Siamese twins at the wrist

Some of you probably already know from sovay that the latest issue of Not One of Us is back from the printer. She received her contributor's copy ahead of time because she happened to be around and we met at her parents' house last evening. I was rewarded with 1.3 hours of intelligent and relaxing conversation with sovay and her mom. Where else could I converse about the Gaborian Wave Paradox? Happy me.

I probably won't start mailing copies of this latest issue to contributors, subscribers, and distributors until the weekend. One of us (if that be the term) will post the table of contents within the next few days.

In the meantime, subsist on these latest work-related items. The first is a journal article where we presented the findings of a four-country survey on attitudes about quarantine. Here's a link to the abstract. The full article is on the subscription-only Health Affairs website.

The second is a press release about our survey of attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors related to avian flu. The complete findings are linked from within the release.

The purpose of both of these surveys was to provide advice to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) about health communication in case of a biological emergency. "Don't eat uncooked tainted chicken blood" will probably be an easy message to get across.

Ha, I love it. My first attempt to search the Web resulted in something about (sound?) waves and a paradox, but the link wasn't working. Other than that you stumped the Web. Next time I'm helping my daughter with her physics homework, I'll see what formula she's using to describe your Gaborian Wave Paradox. Those are good days--tossing paper into a waste basket. (I keep telling people we need to slow down and look at things.)
