John,

I've only just in the last month re-established
contact with Sally again.  :-)   She is delighted
that her research is still up on the web and is
writing some additional material describing
her work and ideas about consciousness.  I know
she would be -thrilled- to hear from you!

You can contact her at

sally cobb <***> .

She might not answer right away as her only
computer access is through a local library,
but reply to you she will.

If there is any specific material you think she ought
to include in her addendum writings, please mention
those to her.  That would be terrific.

FYI, her showcase section at my website is at
