Consider also checking out academic catalogs to see who teaches
classes in topics like cartography, geography, geology, urban planning,
image processing (typically EE), remote sensing, remote espioniage
[sorry, I just saw the latest Nova 8)], sociology, forestry, etc.
Such classes are taught at places like Purdue, U Mich. [ERIM],
UC Santa Barbara [GRSU], UC Berkeley, Caltech, oil companies, service
academies, IBM PASC, etc. etc.

Jef, I suggest you add the EOS address and ACM address to weekly freq. Q.
