Your question, reply or comment will be published in the next available issue of SAMBA TALKS. Include your name (or initials), email address, city, and state, if you would like these published. Please note that because of the high volume of questions we receive, there is often a delay of 1 to 2 months before publication.

SAMBA Talks will include all discussion questions we receive considered of interest to the membership at large. We will endeavor to publish a response to at least one of these questions. The response will be from experts in the field, and from those willing to express a view on a particular topic, backed by experience and/or published evidence. Where email addresses are published, those individuals have indicated their interest in discussing the published questions.
