I have a conference coming up in 'States in July/August, probably Bay Area, and I can do stop-over in say in New York or Toronto on the way. Both the time, location and my participation are still unconfirmed, so don't count me in. In the mean time, I would like to draw everyone's attention to a Phil-Lit by law that I believe also applies to Lit-Ideas. Section 45.6(c) on Providing Beverages to List Members reads: "Should a list member find him or herself in a city, state, nation or continent inhabited by another list member due to travel (business, academic, tourist or unintentional), a drink should be offered. Financial, religious, medical, ethical or logistical exceptions do not apply." Cheers, Teemu Helsinki, Finland __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
