Be sure to reserve your hotel rooms on time! And preregister for the conference on time, too! Both deadlines are THIS FRIDAY. The Marriott must *receive* (by mail or phone) the reservation by Friday at the absolute latest. The room block for Saturday, May 4 is just about all filled at the Marriott, and there are no more rooms for Saturday once the room block is filled. The same may happen for the other days, too. You can try nearby hotels, but they're probably tight too because of the Heritage and Jazz Festival. Here are the phone numbers. Again, be *sure* to mention the keywords STOC '91 to the Marriott when making reservations. Conference Hotel: the New Orleans Marriott, (800) 228-9290 or (504) 581-1000 Alternate nearby hotels: Sheraton New Orleans Hotel, (504) 525--2500 Hotel Le Meridien New Orleans, (504) 525--6500 Monteleone Hotel, (504) 523--3341 The discount offered by United airlines through Pearson Travel is substantial for regular tickets that do not require a Saturday stay, so check that out, by calling Pearson Travel, (800) 729-2500. Mention ARC No. 41801863. Talk to Barbara if she's available, otherwise whoever is free. -- Jeff
