<DIV><FONT size=2>Hi, John, and everyone,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I'll be attending SACC and the mini-workshop on syntax on
Thursday, and I'll be arriving around 2 pm Wednesday in Detroit from Kansas
City, renting a car, and leaving from Detroit about 2pm on Sunday. (The
reason I'm landing in Detroit and not Lansing is that I have a free ticket on
Southwest Airlines that I would like to use.) If anyone needs a ride,
please let me know, and I'll try to link up with you. I'll be staying at
the Kellogg Center on campus, because I was unable to get the conference rate at
the Clarion at the late date I called for reservations. Although I won't
be giving a paper, I'm looking forward to seeing everyone and
participating. Once you know how many to expect for the mini-workshop, is
there a way that we can find out when and where it will be?</FONT></DIV>

<P><FONT size=2>Hi everyone,</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT size=2>I too would like to know what the schedule will look
like. I only </FONT><BR><FONT size=2>received a few (four)
abstracts. I'm hoping we can do better than </FONT><BR><FONT
size=2>that. Could all those interested in presenting a paper send me a
</FONT><BR><FONT size=2>title (an abstract is optional but would be
appreciated). In </FONT><BR><FONT size=2>addition, could those attending
but not presenting a paper let me </FONT><BR><FONT size=2>know, so that we
know about how many to expect. I would like to urge </FONT><BR><FONT
size=2>everyone to present something - remember we are a rather informal lot
</FONT><BR><FONT size=2>so it doesn't need to be polished. In addition,
anyone interested in </FONT><BR><FONT size=2>getting together on Thursday for
a mini-workshop on syntax let me </FONT><BR><FONT size=2>know so we can find
someplace (other than the local coffee shop) to </FONT><BR><FONT size=2>have
it.</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT size=2>Thanks,</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT size=2>I look forward to hearing from MANY people.</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT size=2>Best wishes,</FONT> </P>
