Busy day at school today. The picture is of Dr Gary Coutu setting up some of the posters for the West Chester University Geography Club and Department of Geography and Planning's contribution to the world-wide celebration today of GIS Day, sponsored by ESRI, the makers of the ArcGIS suite of mapping products. It is a day when Geography students and educators can show how they have applied the emerging technology of Geographic Information Systems to their research and classwork, as well as to introduce the ways that GIS can be used in any number of areas. That's my poster in the lower right=hand corner of the picture!

Also, this is my first test post using the blogging interface from Flickr!
