Here's an interesting little email that just crossed by desktop. Not quite sure what to make of it...
Incidently, this came to me via the WASH and WACOM club reflectors, where it got cross posted from the Skyview RS reflector, and apparantly it first went out to the Greater Pittsburgh VHF Society reflector. 73 -----Original Message----- From: Juan Manfredi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Jul 12, 2006 11:08 AM Subject: CW operators needed. To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dear Mr. Colwell: I am a medical student at the University of Pittsburgh, who is currently conducting a summer research project in the laboratory of Dr. Fiez. She is a professor in both the Psychology and Neuroscience departments. A focus of our lab involves gaining a better understanding of language and memory processing. We have recently turned to Morse code as a potential investigating tool due to its unique linguistic properties. Consequently,our lab is examining the differences between processing Morse code and speech in a simple memory task. As you may already know, it is not easy to find people who are proficient in Morse code. For this reason, we believe that the Greater Pittsburgh VHF Society may be a valuable resource that can help us recruit people with this rare skill. Your involvement would create a unique opportunity to investigate this unexplored area of research. We would greatly appreciate it if you would circulate this information to all of your members. Participants will be compensated 25 dollars, and will also be refunded for parking. They will be asked to hear and remember letters. The duration of the study is approximately one hour and thirty minutes. If there is interest, we can discuss any further details. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Dalia Balsamo 718 LRDC 3939 O'Hara Street Univ. of Pittsburgh Pittsburgh, PA 15260 412-624-6898 (phone) "Balsamo, Dalia" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- Juan J.
