Hugh,

You will always be on the list.  Jeff and I are working out a way to show 
people as active or not.  All contributors and founders (you) will 
continue to be listed, and if currently inactive, that will be shown 
somehow.  This allows for the possibility of someone currently inactive to 
become active in GLIMS again in the future.

By all means, feel free to track down the circular moraine or other things 
of interest.  But do let the relevant RC people, as well as Jeff and me, 
know in case others are looking at the same thing.

Cheers,
Bruce
