Diana Kornbrot has started a small campaign that any course costs should be displayed prominently. I agree. Here's another request. It may well be advised as good practice on allstat, but the web pages don't appear to be accessible, so I can't check. In any case, there are daily violations of what I am going to recommend. (And my own past practice doesn't meet it entirely, but I'll try to do better in future.) Please announce meeting (conference, seminar, lecture) _place_ and _date_ within the subject (title) of your posts. Often I click on posts with titles as vague as "Seminar" or "Workshop" only to find that space and/or time alone rule out attendance. (Also, posters beware that some people just delete unread posts with such vague titles as unlikely to be worth bothering with.) A title like Seminar: R.A. Fisher on statistical humility, Cambridge 1 April 2008 is I suggest good practice, enabling in most cases a very quick decision on whether to read further. The precise time will often fit in the title too. Nick [log in to unmask]
