Have any of you used the Congressional Research Service for CTI? Any comments on its usefulness?

You are most welcome!
If you want to have an interesting read, check out the Hungarian Chemical Industry article that I attached to my CTI post. the author, Pat Short (patricia_short@btconnect.com) is based in the UK- London, I think. I tried to get her for Rome but she will be in the States with C&E News (her publication). You might want to get her for a meeting in London. My guess is that she will tell a very good story about competivie insights and successes against very high odds.

It would be great to engage her, perhaps for futher international meetings.
