Subject:      Special TCON CHANGE!!!

Greetings,
   As you are about to read, a slight miscommunique has occured
regarding the tcon.  I therefore, with my humblest apologies, announce
that we are going to have to reduce the number of attendees at the tcon.
 Peter explains why below.  I had assumed from the outset that we would
be using the AT&T system, as we've used it before with ISU and... .
Anyhow, to make a long story short, I'm asking the following 5 people to
attend the tcon AND then I ask that everyone (ALL executive bard
members, and anyone else that wants to join us) move over to the SEDS
Haven, and continue the tcon in the normal way.  Also those attending
the Special TCON, please take hand written notes, or an audio recording
or something, so that we can post as complete a transcript of the
special tcon to the L tomorrow afternoon/evening.
    To those not on this short list, some of you are geographically
close to someone who is...please contact them, and see if you can't come
over.  Also, in no case is selection or non-selection any sort of
reference to the work you had to be doing.  My primary consideration has
been who has been involved the most with the SEDS Mom thang, and who has
the greatest use for the tcon.
     Once again, my humblest apologies to everyone, and especially to
those not on the list below.
    Till later,
Drew

LIST OF INVITED TO SPECIAL TCON

JEFF FOUST
LISA WEIGEL
AMY HOUTS
BILL BLUM
DREW NELLES (Dennis Wingo)

Finally, I have yet to check with Peter to see if he's found Lisa.  If
he hasn't, Kevin Knoedler is asked to be the standby.  And Amy, is there
any way you and David Webb could meet together.  If you can, I'd like
Dave Kalman to act as standby there.

Once again I'm terribly sorry about all this.  To those attending the
tcon, expect your phone to ring around 15:00 EST.  To everyone else,
we'll talk to you on SEDS haven about 15 minutes later.
