Dear Mr. Johnson,

I've been on this list for about a year now, mostly
lurking, many times contributing. I must say, your postings certainly
have a lot of vigor in them yet there is something about your communiques
that intrigues me too. Would you offer a brief autobiography to those of us
that do not know you or understand where you are coming from in some of
your more 'tremulous' postings? I am entering my junior year in college
and am starting to formulate what it is I want to do in the world through
anthropology. I think what basic information you could share with the
group about your anthropological upbringing could be enlightening to
'young anthropologists' like me. I offer this request to any other
established or up-and-coming anthropologists out there too.

Sincerely, Dara Barnett
