\"what can you do to help naohsm\" Alan R. Mercurio

Alan R. Mercurio · January 2003

I'm confident that as friends, members and professionals of naohsm, there is a lot you can do. As many of you know from the last board of directors meeting John Griffin and I are working on increasing the traffic at naohsm's bulletin board (Shop Talk) Like many of the technical web sites in our industry this can be a very valuable tool and I hate to see it shut down due to lack of participation and/or interest. One of the things I feel the board has been missing is the lack of responses. When we do have a visitor. If you don't answer they figure you're not home? And after they find you're not home a couple of times they stop visiting. Are my making sense? Sure I am :) Even if you don't have an answer to a question we as group should certainly know someone who does. So why not respond and say "Hey that's a good question I'll see if so and so can help us." Now we have at least acknowledged our visitor and made their stop to the site a pleasant experience. Ok I'll stop rambling on now. What John and I had in mind is for one person to monitor the board, one I day per week, and respond to any inquires we have. You would be required only to check the board, say three or four times a day once a week. Once in the morning, again early afternoon, then just before leaving work and again in the evening. Not a lot of time would be involved and it may give you satisfaction of helping someone out there. After all isn't that what naohsm is all about? Education. Listen I know all of don't have the time (especially in the winter) and I also know, respect and appreciate there are many other ways you already help our organization. But there has to be enough of us able to cover this. John and I have already recruited some of the industries finest members. So, why not join us? and when you pick a day don't be hesitate to stop by on days other than your scheduled one. Ok you ready to give back to the industry that gives us so much. Lets do this! If you would like to participate in this please e-mail my dear friend John Griffin a note about what day or days you would be available. Please give him a few days to choose one from. John's E:mail is: johnjg@optonline.net Thanks for your consideration in our efforts. Your friend in the industry,
