This Site was launched in 1999 at the
University of British Columbia with the assistance of
Chris Wyatt, and updated
through the summer of 2003 with the assistance of Xanthia
Berry, Graduate Research Assistant, Emory University, Rollins School of
Public Health. In late 2003, Lawrence W. Green (LWGreen@comcast.net)
began attempting to adapt and maintain the site without such competent
assistance, and moved its home to San Francisco in September 2004. It
has been dormant for most of 2007-2010, but is now being updated with
the assistance of Seena Nair, MPH.
