| October 2009 seems a long time ago for those of us, probably most, who follow current events in this country, notably the stirring drama of a new Administration struggling to deal with economic and foreign policy crises while at the same time pushing a massive legislative program through Congress. Yet it was only October when we last gathered around this web page. In this Winter edition of Yale62.org, we lead with some good news about the 50th Reunion from our maximum leader, Secretary Jim White. Then we offer -once again - not one but two feature articles, one long and one short but both terrific insights by good writers on the worlds of watercolor painting (Bill Doying) and the literary picks of 2009 by critic and renowned blogger/journalist/media personality Chris Lydon. After only a brief rest, the travelling Hummels, Dave and Cindy, are back with a report on their Fall '09 journey through West Africa game country, together with a generous helping of Cindy's spectacular photos. Quick tip: To access the material on any of our current topics, click on the underlined words to read the content in its entirety. |

Our "This Just In" mailbag is stuffed this time and probably you need two sessions to get through it. Mentioned, along with other regulars, are Peter Bell, Norm Jackson, Rod Quainton, Bert Decker, Tom Cutler, Peter Cohen, Joe Holmes, Clark Winslow, Chris Snow and Chuck Elkins. Check out Bert Decker's Numbers 9 and 10 "Worst Communicators of 2009". We have Al Chambers' trenchant report on the AYA assembly held in New Haven just before The Game in November, and Bob Oliver's report on the 50th Reunion which includes a call to arms for volunteers on a myriad of fronts. The CorSec column borrows a cheerful note from farthest east resident and amateur lobsterman Roger Clapp (Addison, Maine). There are obituaries by Bob Oliver for Christopher Blaisdell and George Clements. Finally, we have the latest Alumni Notes edition, new for this month: March / April Notes, as well as November / December '09 and January / February '10, for your reading pleasure. Please remember to send your news to CorSec at mkane40@gmail.com. Thanks. | ||||
