Sounds very interesting. Are you going to have the proceedings published and available for purchase (or maybe be really nice and just send interested folks copies thereof -- I'm not really expecting this, it would cost way too much :-), or are you going to keep the proceedings only in the form presented at the meeting (and thus unavailable to the rest of us)? Some of this stuff could REALLY help on my term paper... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -Brad Knowles UUCP: ...!texsun!uokmax!blknowle ARPA: blknowle@uokmax.ecn.uoknor.edu SNAIL: 1013 Mobile Circle Norman, OK 73071-2522 Disclaimer: (The above opinions are my own.
