Or for Alison? Or were you thinking of Sydney? Sabbatical or no sabbatical, I think Sydney is still waiting expectantly. And following Ellen's lead to check out Alison's links, I don't think anyone has yet mentioned that AB appears to have a facebook page now. But, exacting her revenge on nerds who have nothing better to do with their lives than keep track of her links, Alison appears to have put nothing on it except a picture of herself.
