Hello everyone! I'm back! I'm still a little sleepy but it feels great to be back on the lilac page! First - thank you for the many page views. You have inspired me to keep writing. Second, those of you who are having problems with the survey please let me know. Third, I want to make it clear to the media that CONTROLLERS DO NOT GO TO WORK TO SLEEP so please stop portraying us as sleeping. I have been searching for cartoon photos to illustrate some psychological aspects of Atc and most of them send the subliminal message that our job is to sleep. How misleading!
