I went to my first BioQUEST workshop in 1991.  As for many people, it was a transforming experience.  The three p's became, and remain, important elements in my teaching.  I also made a number of very good friends that year, Ethel Stanley among them.  I wish I could be there to celebrate this anniversary.  It is a wonderful tribute to its nurturers that it is still such a vibrant organization.
