Good morning,

Some of you I know personally, but many others I do not, so let me
introduce myself.  My name is Charles Scharnberger.  I am professor
emeritus of Earth Sciences at Millersville University (PA) and operator
of Lamont Cooperative Seismic Network station MVL.

Won-Young Kim and I have been talking for some time about the
desirability of the LCSN operators, and other regional operators or
interested parties, getting together from time to time for a meeting
and/or workshop.  We also have discussed the idea of forming an
advisory committee for the LCSN.

The purpose of this communication is to see how many of you would be
interested in doing this.  And when would be the most convenient time?
Two dates that Kim and I have discussed are Saturday, Oct. 22 and
Saturday, Oct. 29, at LDEO.  But perhaps this is too short notice.

Please respond with answers to the following questions:

*       Are you interested in participating in periodic meetings or
workshops of station operators in the mid-Atlantic region?

*       Would either of the two dates mentioned above work for you?  If
not, when would be a better time? Are Saturdays the best days?

*       What topics would you like to have covered in a workshop?  This
could be software training, troubleshooting, networking, basic
seismology, or whatever is of interest to the group.

Thank you.
