    Schedule

    		 Sessions will start on Monday, with only an evening reception and registration on Sunday. Our room rate agreement does not include Saturday night, and the rates are much higher then, so attendees should plan to arrive on Sunday, not Saturday. LCD computer projection will be available, and there will be laptop computers with LINUX and WIN-2000 operating systems and software. Speakers are encouraged to bring backup materials if they are at all unsure of their presentation working.
