Eris,
        I need rigt away, if possible, a list of websites that are good for
answering fairly simple health questions (for CalPERS employers). Example:
differences between generic and other drugs, where to find information on
employee wellness programs, etcetera.
        Can you assist? A lot of the sites I use have the best information
available only to members, such as IFEBP or EBRI. I wanted to exclude those
sites and have ones that are usefl to the general public.
        I've given some possibilities to the requester. I use Factiva and
State library databases, too, to answer health-related questions, but I'm
assuming employers can't access them. Thanks!

FYI, I am one of the presenters for this teleconference -- yup, MLA is

about the teleconference agenda and it's possible relevance to your life or
work, don't hesitate to ask me!
