REFLECTOR: Future Symposium

Tue Jan 23 19:59:54 CST 2007

Thanks for saving me the time to give my 2 cents Greg.  Chances are many,
if not most, will find the best tickets through Orlando.  Therefore, those
who want can enjoy the city before and/or after the event.  That's 4 cents
now Scott.
Regards
Jorge
