<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi Faye,<BR>
<BR>
I like their FME as well. I do not know the folks behind the<BR>
project. If you want to pursue this avenue, I'll be glad to<BR>
help from the scientific side (though my knowledge of this<BR>
topic is somewhat limited).<BR>
<BR>
best<BR>

I'm quite impressed by the Foundational Model Explorer:<BR>

BTW, are you familiar with the people behind this project? I couldn't<BR>
find anything regarding licensing or data usage on their web site.<BR>
