>Hi Mary,

>Bob wanted me to look into a way for him to connect to the AG remotely
>when he's in England next fall. I was reading the ag page and talked to
>the insors folks and figured out some possible solutions. Currently Bob
>has a mac powerbook and an Isight camera which ideally he would like to
>use.
>Insors told me they have some sites they recently set up in England
>that Bob could use (depending on where he was located). I also imagine
>I could look into non-Insors ag sites as well.
>
>Another option would be sending him along an additional windows laptop
>which I could configure the PIG ag software along. Obviously this isn't
>all that ideal as he has to lug an additional laptop along with him.
>
>There's also this connecting to a virtual venue using VRVS which I don't
>know too much about.
>
>If you know the answers to any of these questions or could send along
>the contact info for the appropriate person out at Argonne that would
>be great. Brad mentioned contacting Robert Olson about these matters,
>but I thought you might have a better idea on who to talk to.

>Thanks,
>Shawn
