Subject: Program To Date

Since I know you are all interested, here is the program for my 3-day 
symposium. It is not complete. I have 3 more speakers but their topics have not 
yet been sent.  Two will be making a 2-hour demo of new devices I believe we 
are all interested in.

I will keep you posted as I make further additions.

Pat
