I've got some big news to post- although hopefully people have heard
about it so it's not BIG news...
CIBMTR Milwaukee is moving on Wed., May 7, 2008 to a single location in
the new Cancer Center. All staff are getting new phone numbers
(different phone system), but E-mail addresses should remain the same.
Don't expect much in the way of communication on Wed, May 7, and it is
advisable to not send faxes that day. As of the next day we should be
up and running.
Best regards,
Diane
