    Thanks, Christina!  Your explanation was really helpful for someone
    like me who is new to this idea.  I signed up on the email list.  It
    was great to chat with you at the GIS Day event. <br>

        </div>
        <div>It was great having you speak at our recent GIS Day event,
          you did a fantastic job! The California GIS Council is
          comprised of all levels of government (Federal, State,
          Local...I want to say there may have been some Tribal
          representation for a time but that seat may be vacant at the
          moment), education, non-profit and private industry. This
          advisory body helps make recommendations about geospatial
          issues. For me personally, i think the best reason for the
          council is that it helps keep lines of communication open
          between these sectors which, in turn helps us to function more
          efficiently as Californians in general. The California GIS
          Council email list has been used to announce statewide events,
          local or regional events, announce disaster relief efforts,
          find and distribute data, announce government job positions,
          solicit feedback on standards and to keep the California GIS
          Community close.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>A couple ways you could get involved: (1) subscribe to the
          email list (and speak up if you've got something to say -
          instructions after my signature), (2) attend council meetings
          and help advise your fellow GIS folks (either via webex or in
          person - meetings are announced over the list).</div>

        <div>Thanks,<br>

            you (or maybe Christina) give us a little more background on
