Dear Readers,

George Bernard Shaw once said, “You see things and say ‘Why?’ but I dream things and say ‘Why not?’” Over the years ETAI has always been saying, “Sure, why not?”

Anyone lucky enough to have participated in ETAI 2010, our International Conference in Jerusalem in July, saw the fruits of such dreaming. It was an exciting and invigorating conference with a dizzying array of presentations, including something for everyone – from the practical to the theoretical and even entertaining. We all heartily thank the conference committee, headed by Valerie Jakar, Penny Ur, Nava Horovitz and Debbie Lifschitz for their tireless work and willingness to think out of the box and say, “Sure, why not?” We also want to express our thanks and appreciation to Marna, our office manager, who worked endless hours to make sure everything went smoothly, and to the many other ETAI members who volunteered their time freely to help in the organizing and running of the conference, especially Susan Bedein.
