Antw: 2012 Siouan Conference venue.

[Johannes Helmbrecht]

Dear Bob,

this is a great initiative and opportunity and I would certainly opt for it. 

I wasn't able to come to this year's SCLC conference because I was overloaden
with obligations of different kinds at my home university. I regret this very
much and promise to change for the better in the future. So, if you need help
with regard to the organization I am ready to volunteer.

Best,
Johannes
