[Air-L] Risk awareness and aversion in online spaces

[Ian O'Byrne]

Hi Sara,

Thanks again for reaching out.

I noticed much of the research in the medical literature and was trying to
understand how it impacts our area of focus.

I'm thinking that at the start of the new year, I might like to bring in
interested parties from this listserv to hold an informal Hangout-on-Air
chat to discuss exactly what is "risky behavior" in online spaces. You'll
be at the top of my list if we call that together.

Thanks again,
-Ian
