attach a note to this effect.  You may be asked to perform specific
revisions to be accepted.  Nobody can guarantee you a place without an
acceptable paper.

At the Conference:
There are five tracks.  Time your presentation to last 40 minutes and
have clear relation to your paper.  A Committee member will preside
over your assigned room and adhere to schedule.  Don't hesitate to
submit a presentation you've given elsewhere to a more specialized
audience: Most attendees will find it new - and necessary.  On-site
Schedule is duplicated early on first day.  If you may have a work
emergency you can reschedule or substitute your co-author.
