Dear MEMS Electronic Discussion Group, It has been my pleasure and honor to have been the moderator for this discussion group since its inception in February 1994. I had not planned to stay on as the moderator for this long, but it has been an activity that I have largely enjoyed. Of course, I have had to deal with a few unsavory e-mail exchanges and complaints, but the assumption put forth in the Guidelines of a "responsible readership that will mostly be self-regulating," has indeed been the case from my perspective. Thanks for making my job an easy one. I am now moving on to another job that is outside of ISI (no, I am not joining a start-up), and must relinquish this duty. The new moderator is Dr. Peter Will, who is also the project leader for the MEMS Clearinghouse. Regards, Bill Athas
