you might contact Dave- my email must not make it through is filters, as
no mention below in the IP digest. Here is what I sent him:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
The Amazon Mechanical Turk team has created a site where there are
40,000 images from the past 2-3 days that volunteers can search and flag
images. At mid-day today we are expecting another batch of images from
the Canadian space agency, which retasked a satellite to fly over during
the past 24 hours.

Silicon Valley=92s High-Tech Hunt for Colleague
By KATIE HAFNER
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2 =97 When James Gray failed to return home from a=20=
=20
sailing trip on Sunday night, Silicon Valley=92s best and brightest=20=20
went out to help find him.
After all, Dr. Gray, 63, a Microsoft researcher, is one of their own.
The United States Coast Guard, which started a search Sunday night,=20=20
suspended it on Thursday, after sending aircraft and boats to scour=20=20
132,000 square miles of ocean, stretching from the Channel Islands in=20=20
Southern California to the Oregon border. Teams turned up nothing,=20=20
not so much as a shard of aluminum hull or a swatch of sail from Dr.=20=20
Gray=92s 40-foot sailboat, Tenacious.
In the meantime, as word swept through the high-technology community,=20=20
dozens of Dr. Gray=92s colleagues, friends and former students began=20=20
banding together on Monday to supplement the Coast Guard=92s efforts=20=20
with the tool they know best: computer technology.
The flurry of activity, which began in earnest on Tuesday, escalated=20=20
as the days and nights passed. A veritable Who=92s Who of computer=20=20
scientists from Google, Amazon, Microsoft, NASA and universities=20=20
across the country spent sleepless nights writing ad hoc software,=20=20
creating a blog and reconfiguring satellite images so that dozens of=20=20
volunteers could pore over them, searching for a speck of red hull=20=20
and white deck among a sea of gray pixels.
