1. Does anyone out there still use the Wessex? We've just used it in a small study to rate children's level of disability in a study of NAS and DSA help-lines - but cant figure out if we're scoring it right. Id be v grateful for advice. 2. Is anyone going to AAMR conf this year? And would they take some IASSID World Congress Cape Town postcards for me?
