Geoff,
I just got back from a weekend trip with my son and am catching up on
mail. We're meeting 2-5 on Friday, and Amy has graciously scheduled
things so we don't compete with other parts of the conference. If you're
there, please come and participate. You're very welcome.

How about others? Can we sign up, too? What day(s)?
