I want to publicly thank you for the opportunity to participate in this conference. I am impressed as I can be with the general quality, and with the quality of the queries I have received. This is a groundbreaking effort, which I hope will become a model for people in many fields in the future. Good work, my friend! Lou H. Every year better From: GertÊ Reunes Date: 10/11/98 Time: 10:36:43 AM Remote Name: 195.238.9.170 Comments Hello, I think that internet conferences in the future will be more and more interesting. Perhaps the date 22nd october 98 was to soon for preparing a lot of publicity for this congress... But 1600 hits on the 11 october is already a great succes !!! Wonderful Format and Subject Matter From: AK Date: 10/17/98 Time: 11:00:26 AM Remote Name: 208.254.42.14 Comments My complements to the fabricators of this succinct and elucidatory web site. Well done! Andrew Kuster Great Conference From: Molly Tami Date: 10/19/98 Time: 1:43:39 PM Remote Name: 205.188.195.21 Comments This online conference has been great! The articles were super and I've learned alot! To honor ISAD, I will be doing a presentation at my son's school, explaining why people stutter to 2-5 grade students. I am happy to be linked into all this great info! Thank you all for your efforts. Excellent conference From: Jaan Pill Date: 10/21/98 Time: 9:22:41 PM Remote Name: 207.34.226.192 Comments It's been an excellent conference. It has added to the development of the international self-help network. It's been a good idea for Judith to share information about how much time she has devoted to this. Such information needs to be shared, in my experience. People need to have some perspective on the kind of volunteer hours that are required for a production of this type. With reference to continuous improvement, I think that further work toward succinctness is probably a key element forfurther refinement in the whole process. It's the short message that gets read. Congratulations on a successful first-ever event. Jaan ISAD Conference From: Lynne Shields Date: 10/22/98 Time: 10:45:53 AM Remote Name: 199.217.208.162 Comments Thanks to Judy, Michael, and the contributors to this conference. It is well organized and presented. I have learned much from reading the articles as I've had time. I am grateful that they will be available on the Stuttering Homepage, as I haven't had the time to read more than a handful over the course of the conference. Lynne Shields BRAVO -- ISAD Organizers and Participants From: Steve Hood Date: 10/22/98 Time: 12:28:23 PM Remote Name: 199.33.133.50 Comments Just a quick note to express my appreciation to Judy Kuster and Michael Sugarman for their hard work and dilligence in organizing the ISAD Web Site, and to thank those who participated in his historic event. Those of us who were given the opportunity to read and respond to the various papers owe you a standing ovation. THANKS, Steve Hood Thank you Judy! From: Speak Easy Inc.

You both have done wonderful job. You have allowed the experts, the laymen, the fluent and the none fluent to reach out and touch one another in a way that has probably never been done before. Go home, have a coffee break and then ready for a 1999 ISAD! **G** Best learning experience From: Gunars K. Neiders Date: 10/23/98 Time: 10:37:58 AM Remote Name: 12.13.226.14 Comments Thank you Judy for providing this opportunity to read up to date material on the subject of stuttering. The presenters were outstanding and the format of being able to ask questions and get answers made it the best learning experience on stuttering I have had. I hope this will turn out to be an annual event. Gunars Stuttering From: Lance Ned Date: 10/21/99 Time: 6:13:12 PM Remote Name: 204.196.106.19 Comments I think the topic of stuttering and parkinson's disease was one of the more interesting topics presented. I found this topic interesting because I work with an individual with PD and I did'nt know PD could cause stuttering. The indivdual I'm working with does not show any signs of the dyfluncey, but after browsing through the conference I learned that it's something that can come about later in life, even as a adult.
