    Thanks for publishing this and all the links to Alvin’s presentation. It is amazing how many truly thoughtful, practical, dynamic, researched, and unique people there are out there that seem to not get the national notice of others.
    Alvin Trusty has been the highlight of etechohio for many of us for a number of years. I alerted you to his presentation at the conference and am so glad that you spent the time that you did to share his content with your audience. Keep up the good work. Kathy
