Hi Jody,


   This would be a great idea.  On other lists I read (Barbershop
harmony, Reed Organ Society, Piporg-L, etc.) a fr equent technique is
to "stripe" the convention badge with a particular color "highlighter"
type marking pen so that all such convention-goers can identify (at
least) each other.  But an actual meeting at a place and time certain
would be nice also.

See you there.

 [ I've also been to several conferences recently that had "badge
 [ markers" for differrent interest groups.  The trick is to get
 [ the markers and a "legend" at a well visited bulletin board.
 [ Sheets of peel-off sticky markers are available at office
 [ supply stores.  I'll see if I can find something.  Please
 [ look at the bulletin board (I _ASSUME_ there will be one) for
 [ a posting from me.

 [ This actually is my first MBSI convention, so I'm not sure
 [ about missing the orientation.  Keep the suggestions coming;  I'll
 [ make an "announcement" here, probably on Sunday, and follow it up
 [ on the bulliten board Tuesday night or Wednesday morning.
