Annette, I saw your article about Elisabeth Cummings and that the link to Elisabeth’s interview by Peter Pinson wasn’t working. The correct URL is http://www.cultconv.com/English/Conversations/Cummings_Elisabeth/HTML5/testimonybrowser.html

Thanks Bob. I will correct it. Really looking forward to the new book about Elisabeth’s work which is being launched in a week or so in Canberra. I will be writing about it for sure – it really deserves some publicity.
