I would like to take this opportunity to publicly thank the committee for
awarding me the 2017 Rohlf Medal. This is, indeed, the high-point of my
career, and I am greatly honored. I would also like to extend special
thanks to Dr. Fred L. Bookstein for the amazing introduction he gave of me.

I have a new software utility that does nothing particularly morphometric

If you mean Morpheus et al., this program does not do any manual data
collection. I have tried for years to get a scicomp student interested in
writing such a module, but to no avail. I have written several digitizing

And be careful, in general, with missing data imputation. It should be used
sparingly. Parameter estimates for substituted data are generally unbiased,
but variance estimates are underestimated - it looks like you have more

The very first thing you need to do is start making regular, sequential,
remote backups of modified files so that even if you obliterate one it is
no big deal.
In general, you should use TPS to randomize the images while digitizing to
avoid/distribute any creeping temporal bias, then restore
with Morpheus et al. We cannot fix any issues if
we do not know they exist.
Thanks, ds
