At the time of the conference, Alan was with
Queens.  The last time I had any contact with him
was early in 1997.  It sounded as though someone
thought he might have moved since then.  I would
still start with Queens University in Kingston. Try
613-545-6255.

About a year ago (?) I attended a conference
sponsored by the Addiction
Research Foundation at which Alan spoke.  Try
Andrea Stevens Lavigne at ARF.
She may know.
