This is so sad! We started the Focus on Basics list early on, when NIFL first started the discussion lists. Thanks to Julie's fine moderating the list has truly come alive in the past few years. IN addition to providing a forum for discussion the list has been a great way to get feedback, ideas, writers, and editorial board members for the publication. 

Thank you all for reading, sharing, and contributing to the publication. Thanks, too, for the highly personal experiences you have shared with us all. Please continue to introduce colleagues who are new to the field to the "Focus on Basics" archives, and watch for our last two issues, in May and in October.

I feel like Johnny Carson signing off!

Best,
