>Dear All,

>The tentative time is towards the end of October,1997. At this time, I am

	The Geological Society of America  Annual Meeting is usually in
this time frame. Besides, wouldn't that be well into the winter season ;
Lake Louise , which I have visited, strikes me as a wonderful venue for  a
summer season conference.
