Getting wired

[Una Smith]

It is my impression that a substantial fraction of TAXACOM readers
have e-mail but not full access to the Internet (telnet, ftp, and
all that depends on ftp, including gopher and WWW server access),
or work with colleagues who are not well-connected.  Below, I have
inserted a fragment of a conference schedule that includes names
and e-mail addresses of regional experts who may be able to shed
some extremely bright light on this problem, from a point of view
that is not US-centric.
