Hi all,

Thanks, Mark.

I happen to be a board member of The Complexity Society and I can highly
recommend the conference as well as a membership of the Society.
Membership is £45 a year (now until Jan 2004) - see website.
The conference is £50 cheaper for members than non-members, so there is
NO reason not to join! 

Regards,
