NEH workgroup

[M. J. Driscoll]

I've been in darkest Sweden for the last couple of days, lecturing (to 
a bunch of old age pensioners, as it happened), so I appear to have 
missed all the fun. Still, as I originally nominated Chris (whom I do 
not know), I'm obviously happy with the choice of her as chair.  On 
the other matter that's been under discussion - a number of years ago 
I met Tobias Rischer, who struck me as being an energetic young 
man with a lot of interesting ideas; on the basis of that meeting I 
would certainly say that he was fit to serve on the working group.  
The fact that he's German is probably not a bad thing either.
