Hi all,

I received the request below.  I'm hopeful that someone on this list 
will step up to help.   If you are willing to help, would you respond to 
me and to Eileen?  Even if you can't help this time, but you'd love to 
do something like this in the future, let us know.  I'm sure that 
Education & Outreach (EO) would appreciate having a list of names to 
draw from in the future.

If you aren't sure about doing this, read Clark Evans' article about 
this very thing.  You'll be inspired!

Hello Paula,
We have had a request, from a 13 year old, to 
shadow a person (meteorologist or not) to 
understand more about the field of 
Meteorology. I was wondering if there were any
people in your program that would be 
available for a couple of hours to talk with 
this young boy. He is very interested in the 
field and perhaps talking to a young,
enthusiastic person might be nice for him. 
Let me know if you can think of anyone who 
would like to do this. We seem to be asking 
the same people here at
the Mesa Lab for help with things like this 
so I thought you might have some new contacts.
Thank you for your help,
Eileen
