  Hello all,
 Some quick LAC2009 news.
 The LAC2009 website now has some info on
 travelling to and staying in Parma.

 In the bed & breakfast category there is
 one more which will be added soon:
 DUCALE, Via Costituente 11, 43100 Parma

 If you look at the map on this website
 (click on the foto), the CdM is very
 near to the place marked 'Duomo'.
 10-15 min from the conference site,
 depending on your walking speed.
 La Casa della Musica on Google maps:

 Robin Gareus and Christoph Haag are working
 on getting the registration page on line.
  
Wow, it's in Italia! I'd love to go. Alas, I can't; the airfare alone from SFO
to Milano would be around US$1000... there's no way I can come up with that kind of
money.
Also I've never been to Italy myself (sono io cento-per-cento italiano, ma nato a New
York), and I'm a bit afraid to go, since if I do, I might not ever want to come back.
*sigh*
Have fun, and enjoy the prosciutto!
