And seeing Randy's note on Charleston prompts me to advise that the
crucial date right now is for hotel reservations.  We are at the Westin
Francis Marion Hotel in the historic district.  Rooms will be held for
SEALSB at the special $109 rate until September 30 (next Wednesday).  Be
sure to mention SEALSB when you call.  After that, all bets are off.
October is high season in Charleston and rooms are always scarce and at
the commercial rate.  So make your reservations now.
          The Hotel:  Westin Francis Marion Hotel
          Reservations phone number:  1-800-433-3733
          Dates of meeting:  October 22-24 (you may want to stay over
Sat. night and enjoy the        many charms of Charleston).
          Meeting Registration Forms:  contact the undersigned and I
will Fax you everything you     need.
          Papers:  The deadline for Best Paper Award submissions has
passed, but we encourage you to make a presentation.  But if you just
want a heck of a nice time in a beautiful place without the pressure of
a presentation, come and enjoy.
