I am sure John is well qualified for a cognitive science career - the coincidence in names was just worth mentioning. Incidentally, I just met with a candidate in Game design and research whose name was Alex Games!! Thanks Russ.

John first got his MA in Artificial Intelligence at U Georgia, then spent 2 years working at Frank Tong's fMRI lab at Vanderbilt, so he is well equipped for a career in Cognitive Science. I'm proud of him! He's a great kid, too... BTW, he *is* related to the other John Dewey, distantly.
