Hi Mark, Why couldn't this have been posted last fall!!! I am awaiting clearence to start a job at the FBI lab division's research unit. Does this mean you are leaving LBNL or are you taking on a new person. I hope you and your family are well. I'll send out more detailed contact information for my new life soon.
