Hello from Chicago

Today I'm at a conference in Chicago on GIS -- Geographic Information Systems -- to show off work by the Advanced News Writing class. They crunched lottery numbers and census data to determine that Vermonters don't follow the national trend of poorer people purchasing more lottery tickets than richer people.
You can see the story in this week's Critic. It's not online. Hmmm.
Investigative Reporters and Editors is a group that advocates using a lot of GIS in stories.
