A) When is DECUS Fall? Where is it? (Los Vegas?)

B) What do I gotta do to get to get registered for DECUS Fall?

C) If the previous occupant of my job was a DECUS member and his dues were
   paid by the organization, does this mean I inherit his membership?

The DECUS U.S. Fall Symposium is in Las Vegas, NV, December 10-14, 1990

Try calling +1-508-480-3259.  Tell them that you would like
information on the Fall Symposia and that you would like to join the
Society.

Membership in DECUS is open to anyone and is FREE.  There are no dues.
You can not "inherit" the membership of another member.

Wait until Registration forms come out.  DECUS Members automatically get them.
Registration information is also published in several trade magazines.

DECUS costs $0.00 to join.  Memberships are not transferable.  To get a membership
form either check your DECUS LUG (Local User Group) or call national DECUS at
(508) 480-3635.

Las Vegas Convention Center 12/8 - 12/14.

>B) What do I gotta do to get to get registered for DECUS Fall?

Get a copy of the registration kit.  Biggest problem as usual is getting
housing near the convention center.  Las Vegas is CHEAP hotel contry.
They range from $32 a night to $130 for a penthouse suite at the
marriott.

Nope.  If your orgnization paid for his membership, then they got taken
by someone.  DECUS does not charge for membership.  You want to be a
member, fill out the attached and send it in.
