Albert Camus phrased it best when he said "Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower." As you enjoy the cooler weather and changing leaf colors, don't forget our 30% Certification bundle discount ends on October 31st. This month offers a variety of User Group conferences; what better way to share your ideas about SAS with fellow users than by attending one? Shelly Goodin SAS Press interviews Howard Schreier to discuss his new book, and Authorline has another interesting author interview, this time with Greg Monahan.
