January 14, 2008:
On some early brochures that were mailed to prospective attendees, the schedule of events mistakenly said that on Saturday, April 12, the repeat of Dr. Russell Acevedo¹s lecture would run from 1:40pm to 2:40pm, with the closing address by Dana Oakes to follow at 2pm.  This is a mistake that was corrected in subsequent printings of the brochure.

The correct time for the repeat of Dr. Acevedo¹s lecture on Saturday afternoon is 2:40pm (finishing at 3:40pm) and the closing address by Dana Oakes will follow at 3:45pm running to 4:45pm.

We apologize for any scheduling difficulties this may have caused our attendees.
