R help - Mar 2009 - [OT] Contacting "Introductory Statistics for Engineering Experimentation" authors

I have been examining the text "Introductory Statistics for
Engineering Experimentation" by Peter R. Nelson, Marie Coffin and
Karen A.F. Copeland (Elsevier, 2003).  There are several interesting
data sets used in the book and I plan to create an R package for them.
 I would like to contact the surviving authors (apparently Peter R.
Nelson died in 2004) but have not been able to obtain contact
information for them.  According to the preface the book was developed
for an intro engineering stats course at Clemson however no one at
Clemson could provide any leads.  Does anyone on this list have
contact information for Marie Coffin or Karen A.F. Copeland?  I have
been unsuccessful in various google searches.

Two authors appear to be the same as of the book "Analysis of Means"
(ANOM),
which I read and has a website at http://www.analysisofmeans.com/

If I remember correctly, Mr. Nelson is deceased, but you might nevertheless 
reach Mrs. Copeland following the Contact Us link at the ANOM website, which 
leads to info at analysisofmeans.com.

Or, you might be able to contact her through Boulder Statistics (another 
link at the ANOM website) at http://www.boulderstats.com/ 
(getinfo at boulderstats.com).
