1. EDITORIAL: "Bits and Pieces"
Where have we been?
It has been three months since
the last Relevant Issue. My
apologies folks. Life just got in the way.
On another note, however,
I really haven't gotten any
information/article contributions so I'd have something to
print. Unfortunately, this newsletter is more of a hobby
for me...I don't get paid to do it, so I depend on you
fine folks in the day to day trenches to feed me
printable information.
From this point on, I will
release issues when I have
enough interesting contributions to warrant an issue.
If you have news/stories/articles
of interest, please take
the time to send it on to me for distribution.
Thanks so much.
Ralph Hilliard.
##########################################################
I know this announcement is
quite late, but just in case
you did not know, Alfred Cross died a little over a month
ago. Al was the extremely friendly, classy guy at the
Stoelting booth during many seminars.
Al was truly one of my favorite
people in polygraph. He
knew his polygraph, but more important, Al had a heart
and he wasn't afraid to genuinely love people. I will
miss you Al.
##########################################################
During my little sabbatical
from publishing the "Relevant
Issue", I did stay busy developing some more websites
for Polygraph Examiners and also for one polygraph school.
You can see them here:
The Drake Group:
http://www.arizonapolygraphservices.com
James Abrams: http://www.legacyinvestigations.com
Marston Polygraph Academy/Michael Lynch/Tom Kelly:
http://www.marstonpolygraphacademy.com
I thoroughly enjoy building/maintaining/hosting
websites
for all you polygraph folks. When you get to the place
that you are considering a new site, a redesign or a
hosting move, please consider giving me a call.
Thanks to you all for your
continued support of the
Polygraph Place.

2. POLYGRAPH HISTORY: "A pictorial collection of the
history of the Polygraph Instrument"
I got an email from Terry
Ball, the secretary of the
Northwest Polygraph Examiners Association asking me to
update their listing. Well I did that, but while visiting
their website I stumbled on their "PICTORIAL POLYGRAPH
MUSEUM'. There are some great photos and history of the
polygraph instruments in here. Hope you enjoy them as
much as I did.
