Hi Andy,

I was at the Oregon evolution meeting.  You're spot on about Greg and
Kevin's talks.  Daniel M from Caltech also spoke.  The meeting was
written up in PZ Myers' blog if you want the scoop on the meeting.  I
presented two posters on GMOD and evolution, which should show up on
the GMOD web site in about a week.

I 'linkified' the GMOD news item and added the SpBase logo to the
article.  Please let me know if you want me to undo any of those
changes.

Thanks for your 'fervor.'  GMOD is built on fervor.

Dave C.
