If you can read the dates, you know we're a little behind schedule this month - or last month.
In May, Between Dr. Westgard and myself ("a" Westgard), we visited Puerto Rico; Oslo; Kolding, Denmark; Hamilton, Ontario; and Barcelona, Spain. We were not in the office very much and did not keep up with our website posting duties. While we were able to put up new material, we fell behind in telling people about the new articles.
So here, in retrospect, are the new articles that appeared last month:
