Hi,

My name is Jason Burks and I am a graduate student in the journalism
department at Columbia University.  I am proposing a master's project 
on the SETI project.  The focus of this project is on the average 
SETI member and how he/she goes about searching radiowaves for signs 
of extra-terrestrial life.  

I am hoping to find a few amatuer SETI astronomers in the New
York/Northeast area who are very enthusiastic about thier role in 
SETI. I'm also hoping, if possible, to find a SETI member who may 
have had a close call -- perhaps a signal that revealed something 
unusual.  Do you know of anyone like this?  

I have already contacted the SETI League office and exchanged
e-mails with Dr. Stuart Kingsley among others.  Since you were 
listed as the Northeast regional coordinator, I thought you would 
be the ideal person to contact.

Thank you for your time,

Jason Burks
