    Hi Folks:
    Thanks for a great event last week (and splendid East Coast weather).
    I was quite impressed by BoB, but Stephen’s spatial tool took the prize! I can’t wait for it coming out as a BB Building Block – terrific potential for use with some of our HD anatomy & physiology images.
    Txxtools looks good too – we’re going to erxplore this a little further when time permits.
    Best wishes & have a great Summer break!
    Terry
