the potential for running 2-4 osonos events simultaneously, spread somewhat

<br>
actually, we have been trying out the posting of proceedings to the web,
simultaneously during the conference, since 1999 in chicago. might have
missed doing this in berlin, but mostly it's been done. only thing left
is to do it from two locations, so it's probably ripe as can be technically...
only question is whether anyone wants to play that way...<br>

we stood in a Circle with Harrison and Peggy and knew in our

us lower rates and traveling will be easier. (Chartered flights

one could avail of the extremely low Monsoon ‘Packages’ offered

while you are packing your bags for <ST1:COUNTRY-REGION><ST1:PLACE>Denmark</ST1:PLACE></ST1:COUNTRY-REGION>.
We’ve done a bit of spade work, and the earlier we can firm
