I'm not sure if I would be able to go, seeing as I am a broke grad student, but perhaps Chris Pineda would be interested in going.  I have cc:'d him to this e-mail.

Thanks,

Jeannette :)

thank you Arturo. I'm in contact with Nancy Fortna of NARA and the featured speaker, George Ryskamp. So far the doors are opening for me to attend and record the audio (possibly the video as well) of at least his presentation. I look forward to meeting you and Natalie. Are you all interested in Dinner afterward?

Jeannette will you possibly be able to attend?

This sounds interesting and since it is a short walk from my house
and only $25, I will be attending.  I can get a digital recorder and
record some of it for you in a .WAV file or something similar.

ps: I'm going to try to get the day off from work but I'm not
optimistic. If I can get to the conference I might try to record
   

part of
 

the presentation to include in my Podcast series. I'm not sure how
   

that
 

would work.
