Just a couple of quick items:

1. Apparently, while we were at our Annual Meeting in Orlando our net
server went down. We think we have recovered all of the emails, but if
you sent an email to anyone at the Academy in the later part of the week
please resend it just to be sure.

2. Thanks very much to our volunteer translators who provided the
simultaneous Spanish translation during many of the sessions for the
benefit of the practitioners from Latin America.

3. The meeting was the largest Academy Annual Meeting ever...more than
1500 people registered and attended. Our Family-Friendly schedule of
starting the day at 7:00 am and ending around 3 or 4 pm worked very
well. The scientific sessions were packed (a few had to be moved to
larger rooms to accommodate the crowds), the sold-out exhibit hall was
filled with customers throughout the meeting, and the evaluations
indicate our planning team did a great job in selecting topics and
speakers delivered the goods. Next meeting will be in San Diego, March
19-22, 2003.
