Tess Martinez, a fellow Luncher and a friend, was killed in a car accident in New Mexico. She was apparently driving to Chicago. Her dog is OK. Other Lunchers like Ling Ma, Rick Knight, St, John Berned-Smith, Angelica Herrera and myself all completed a fellowship thru Northwestern last summer in Chicago. We stayed friends. She will be missed. E.Brown/Brnwriter Tess's Links: http://www.aan.org/news/2008_academy_for_alt.../ViewArticle?oid=273254
