Albany on April 26 and 27, 2010.


This is a "Call for workshops and presentations". If you wish to  present
at the meeting, please email me with your workshop.

The meeting will follow the same format as last year.

We will be presenting the "Exhibitors Theater" for the first 20  exhibitors
to register. Selected Exhibitors will be given 3 minutes to address  all
attendees. This was highly enjoyed and very productive for both, the
exhibitor and the attendee at last year meeting. Great reviews.
