It is some time since I communicated with everyone. This is not a sign that nothing is happening, but rather that very much is happening! My apologies for the delay. PLEASE READ THIS MATERIAL CAREFULLY as there are several changes and important things that need to be done NOW. At present we have about 20 or more people who have expressed interest in giving papers at the conference with several in doubt for various reasons. I have abstracts from nearly all of these and completed papers from four. IMPORTANT NOTE: Because of the large number of papers we have decided to extent the conference to FOUR DAYS now including the Monday. The papers will be given over the three days with panel and group discussions on the 4th day. Please make the necessary changes to your plans if you wish to remain for the 4th day. It is time for everyone to commit themselves as to attendence.

Title [Mr/Mrs/Miss/Ms/Dr/Prof] ______________ Name _______________________________________ Address _____________________________________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________ Organisation [if applicable] ________________ Conference fee check enclosed for $75.00 International visitors may send money order or pay on arrival I wish to attend a barbecue dinner on Saturday night for $10.00 [yes/no] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hotel accomodation Ross has provided me with a large list of hotels and information on the local area. I will make this all available on the WWW site. He also has limited billeting opportunities. One hotel available is: Northern Queen Inn; 400 Railroad Ave (916) 265-5824 If I were to come here to stay on an average budget, I personally would get a room at the Northern Queen Inn. This is a nice, very reasonable hotel that is a short walk from downtown so it is quiet. It has its own restaurant if you don't feel like going out. This hotel is right adjacent to the freeway, but set down a bit and surrounded by trees, so that it is quiet. And the freeway is really more of a highway anyway, so it doesn't have much traffic at night. (This is the same highway that the Best Western (below) is along side, just one exit up). When I have business guests visit my company, this is where I would reserve a room for them. I think that everyone would feel comfortable at this hotel and the rates are reasonable at ....Queen, $60.50; Double $63.80, Cabins, $88.00, Chalets, $99.00 all prices include tax and two people. Approximately 60 rooms available as of 3/5/97 --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Ray Tomes -- rtomes@kcbbs.gen.nz -- Harmonics Theory -- http://www.kcbbs.gen.nz/users/rtomes/rt-home.htm
