I removed the conflict of interest tag on this page, because, after review of the diff, I believe it was written from a neutral point of view. Some of the edits may need more citations. It states that it may require cleanup to comply with policies, and I do not believe the tag is necessary unless this page strays away from policy. That being said, it would be better if the user posted suggested changes on the talk page. Ryan Vesey ( talk) 20:26, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
Is this the same Ed Ayres that wrote "What's Good for GM" and who taught at George School in the 1960's ? I suspect so, and if so is there any contact information for him ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.77.16.22 ( talk) 08:35, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

I am Ed Ayres, and the bio for me that appears on Wikipedia is woefully inadequate and out of date. I don't know who wrote it (I think it was entered around 10 years ago.) It is also justifiably flagged as needing citations. I sat down to draft a more accurate bio (trying to be fully objective), but then found Wikipedia's policies discouraging autobiographies. So I wonder if it would be possible for a volunteer to take this on. Since I've been discouraged from using e-mail, I'm not sure how to proceed. I would at least like to see the following information included in a rewrite:

Editorial Director at the Worldwatch Institute (publisher of the annual State of the World), 1993-2005 -- One can kinda almost indirectly infer this by looking at Vital Signs. Ayres is not mentioned in Vital Signs 1992. Vital Signs 1993 says, "Ayres has been editor of World Watch since 1993. He is editorial director of the Worldwatch Institute." He also seems to be mentioned in Vital Signs 2003-2004 as editorial director, although the text is garbled in Google Books. He's not mentioned in Vital Signs 2005.
