I have something to admit: I have been slacking off with the ASHRAE Research Promotion calling campaign. Jesse Friggstad, Kirk Nagus, and Ryan MacGillivray have volunteered to help me and having been working on the calling campaign, but I have not phoned anyone quite yet. My plan is to have contacted everyone on my part of the contact list by the April ASHRAE meeting, so if you run into me at the meeting, you can check how I am doing at that. I am sorry for not being more zealous in the RP Chair role. If you want to know more about ASHRAE Research, then please contact me. Remember that research money raised in Canada stays in Canada.
