p>Correction…

The APSF and the APSF Newsletter regret failing to list two committee members in the Winter issue annual listing of all those contributing to the APSF effort.

Joseph W. Pepper, Ph.D., President of Ohmeda, is a member of the Committee on Technology.

Allen Ream, M.D., Stanford University, is now a member of the Committee on Education and Training.

Both these committee members are recognized for their valuable contributions to the APSF

Also, Robert Caplan, M.D. is now chairman of the Committee on Liason because former chairman Casey Blitt, M.D. has become APSF Treasurer.

Lastly, the Editor sincerely regrets omitting the by-line crediting Jeffrey B. Cooper, Ph.D. with authoring the article ‘ICPAMM Session Focuses on Anesthesia Crisis Management’ in the Spring APSF Newsletter. Dr. Cooper’s frequent contributions to this publication are much appreciated.
