Having heard from Chris and Terry who put together the
Wagar/World-Party/What will the future be like session, let me make a
couple of comments. If that is/was the decision of the council, then so
be it. The point about being a research association and having only a
few sessions still holds, and even if it were not for the cancelling of
the global ecological problems session I still feel that our sessions
should be--particularly in these hard times of fewer sessions--about
research we are doing. I also think we need to talk about where we are
going and what the issues are, and I mean research issues not just world
party issues. So, in the spirit that put this section together and keeps
it going let us all get together at the next ASA meetings and continue
the dialog about what we are and where we are going.
