With the snow storm tonight, most likely, will be staying put.

Some additional inputs

1. IBM Waste/Water engineers have expressed in interest in re-viewing future student engineering efforts involving water treatment.

2. The UVM department of infectious disease has also expressed interest in being involved with this effort. They already are
involved with clean water type programs around the globe, and would be an excellent local resource to bring into this topic. I am in the process
of gathering the contacts, and some background of existing efforts.

Re: Change for the good

Hi evreryone,
IBM does embrace Lean Manufacturing, and we have used it in many fields that directly apply to manufacturing processes, but , also, we have applied it to areas of development. I have participated in one of them.

Regards.
