LFG 2006 -- Program and Registration

Rachel Nordlinger racheln at unimelb.edu.au
Tue May 16 20:28:26 UTC 2006


Hi Aoife and Kersti,

I'm really sorry to do this to you, but my flight from Australia 
arrives into Zurich at 6.15am on Monday 10th of July, so I think it's 
going to be much too tight for me to be able to present at 9.45am on 
that day.  Could you possibly schedule our talk at some point later 
in the conference?

I'm really sorry that I didn't think to mention this earlier, as I 
know from experience what a pain it  is to have to keep juggling the 
program!

Thanks,

Rachel
