                                 With PSI`s growing worldwide membership two new vice chair positions have been created to cope with the demands.  Serving as vice chair (North) will be Dr Pierre Latour, an internationally respected Chemical Engineer of few peers.  Dr Latour`s alma mater, Purdue University`s School of Chemical Engineering has honoured him with their Outstanding Chemical Engineer Award.  Pierre has published 68 papers and was Control magazine`s Engineer of the Year.  He assumes responsibility for guiding PSI in North America and Europe.   The second vice chair is John N.

    Hi Terry,

    Who are you guys trying to kid? I had an interesting chat with John Sanderson and the saying " all that glitters is not gold" springs to mind.

    More on that in section 3.1 of "SpotlightON - PSI and PSI Acumen Ltd" (http://globalpoliticalshenanigans.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/spotlighton-principia-scientific.html).

  2. You and your readers (if you have any) may be interested in my latest update to "SpotlightON - PSI and PSI Acumen Ltd" (http://globalpoliticalshenanigans.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/spotlighton-principia-scientific.html). It covers recent activity concerning the involvement of PSI blogging group's "CEO and Legal Consultant" John O'Sullivan in the defamation action taken by Michael Mann against PSI's ex-"chairman" Tim Ball.

    Best regards, Pete Ridley
