EOnation: Introduction to Jacquelyn Yates

["Jackie Yates" <Yates@salem.kent.edu>]

Hello everybody.  I'm a new participant in the "national" discussion group.  
I've been interested in work and workers ever since I did my dissertation on 
worker satisfaction and its impact on political behavior at the University of 
Pittsburgh, completed way back in 1981.  I'm on the faculty at Kent State's 
Salem Regional Campus, teaching political science and algebra (my hobby).  With 
John Logue, Karen Thomas and Jennifer Maxwell, I've just finished a book 
reporting on an extensive survey of employee-owned firms in Ohio.  I did most 
of the number-crunching for all the authors, and wrote some chapters of the 
book myself.  I'm very interested in finding out what countries are doing with 
ownership of wealth.  The ability of humans to invent ways of conceptualizing 
and organizing their lives (that I would never think of on my own) is a 
constant source of astonishment and delight to me. I'll be reading all your 
exchanges over the weekend, and I look forward to working with the matrix, as 
soon as I can get it to download successfully into Excel. I'm hoping to pull 
your ideas together into a paper for the COG.  Cheerio.  Jackie
