The pre-registration deadline has passed; you can of course just come and sign
up then and there. But it would help if you sent in a registration, and if
you'd like to come to lunch or dinner, send me a quick e-mail now so I order
enough food.
Hotels around here have had some cancelations after Sept. 11; so finding
accommodation even at this short notice may not be out of the question. For
hotel info see the website.
