On the gray menu on the left, click on E-MAIL US
I suspect that multiple people check the online contact form – especially this time of year – so it is a good idea to do that form in case Jodie is out of the office.

MISC
Lockdown and automation
Rather than writing lists of instructions for your father, you could use simple automation software to record and save a series of actions and create a macro button that you can put on his desktop, or assign to a hot key. There are plenty of options, but you could try the free, open source AutoHotKey or the freeware AutoIt. A different kind of alternative is SlickRun, which uses "magic words", eg you can just type MAIL to run your email program of choice.

(Evernote +) I have severe event-memory difficulty. I depend on Evernote with companion apps and devices to accommodate my limitations with minimal interaction. I use an android document scanner that allows me to photograph documents I sign. It aligns the view and saves an indexed OCR'd PDF. A conversation recorder and a transcription service store recordings of conversations with indexed transcriptions. I also use Google Calendar with connections to Gmail and Toodle do task manager, which are all linked to each other, and Gmail forwards my daily agenda notes to Evernote. I use a paper notebook from Moleskine to write notes I want stored in Evernote. The pre-printed lines of the notebook consist of a grid of tiny dots that facilitate Evernote's handwriting recognition feature. I also use an inexpense fast document scanner to record all of my daily snail-mail as it arrives. I scan the envelope, open it, scan the contents, and store an indexed PDF of all correspondence, bills, (which I can tag with due dates so Evernote will remind me to follow up) and even advertisements that I may want to reference in the future. All of these apps are accessible from within Evernote's marketplace.

How to get to my office
If you are familiar with the tunnel under Assembly St that goes between the Law Center parking lot on the Main St. side and the new Darla Moore building on the other side, we are in the middle of the two staircases on the way to the tunnel. You can also get here by using the elevator inside the Law Center by their lobby. The lobby is on level 1 and we are S-1. (There is also a stairwell to the right of the elevator.)
Area where I try things!
A Google A Day http://www.agoogleaday.com/ (Actually, there are three questions a day) They give you the question and a window to search in Google for the answer. There is a timer counting down, so you need to be efficient!

(Dad) Monarch Waystation Program http://www.monarchwatch.org/waystations/index.html "Monarch Waystation Seed Kits are available for $16 and include 9 varieties of nectar and monarch host plants..." - the host plants are Milkweed Plants! The site is terrible. It is unclear the areas where they live., how much space you need, etc. (They have different seeds based on east or west of the Rocky Mountains, but no mention of how far north or south.)
