     Mike,
         No I'm not. I am an AMS one, but I think that is a little easier - a higher
      %age of AMS members become fellows than for AGU.  So go ahead
      and nominate me !
         Here is my full CV. I just updates this with the Nature paper and also
      a paper in GPC which is also good.  As for RC I suspect you may want to
      do something on the Chinese urban paper just accepted in JGR. When I
       get proofs I'll email that.
       One other thing. I got this message from W-C Wang yesterday am.
      So he has been exonerated, as expected. I bet that Keenan doesn't change his
      web site when he hears.
      Wei Chyung is now off to Taiwan for a few weeks. I'll be seeing Tom Karl -
      maybe we can come up with something to do. Not sure what though..
      Cheers
      Phil

     Hi, Tom and Phil,

     I finally got the SUNYA committee report concerning the allegation, the statement from
     the report,

     "..finds no evidence of the alleged fabrication of results and nothing that rises to the
     level of research misconduct having been committed by Dr. Wang"

     Now, the University wants to know what we would like them to do to restore "our"
     reputation.  Please get back to me as soon as possible, I am leaving for Taiwan 5/29^th
     for a Bilateral Workshop on exchanges in Atmospheric Sciences between National Taiwan
     University and SUNYA, which I have been coordinating in the past year or so.

     Phil--this gets back to something we discussed this some time ago. Are you an AGU fellow
     already? If not, I think we should nominate you!

     To: [4]mann@psu.edu
The American Geophysical Union invites nominations for the election
of members
to the rank of Fellow. Each year, about 100 nominations reach the Fellows
Committee
through the AGU Sections and about half are elected. The number of
Fellows is
limited to at most .1% of the membership, which makes this honor very
prestigious.
The Union Fellows are distinguished scientists who have made important
contributions
to one or several fields of geophysical sciences. While such people often
are
at high positions at universities or institutions, the selection
committee feels
very strongly that the scientific merits are the most important criterion
for
fellowship. More than 35% of members are outside of the US. At present
these
are underrepresented among the Fellows of AGU. Please consider suitable
candidates
amongst your colleagues and to make nominations following the
instructions available
