Hi Jim,
How are you? Currently, I am the editor of the NECHPS Newsletter and I'm
looking for articles for the September issue. Would you have one for us
on MEMA nuclear issues/concerns, upcoming meetings, announcements,
planning, etc. I asked Ed Calabrese to give me an article on current
events regarding BELLE/hormeisis, but you are also welcome on this topic
also. We are planning one issue each month. the deadline for submission
is the 10th of each month.  If you could send me something by 11 August
98, I'd appreciate it. If not, next month or another.

 We have about 300 members. If you have any ideas for a column, let me
know. Look forward to hearing from you.

Jim
