Folks, I thought some of you might like to see this, especially as the
deadline for August's MT conference in Elmira looms.

Personally I would strongly encourage our beloved overseas scholars to
submit and to come to Elmira in August.  I can tell you that for me, having
our wonderful overseas guests come and participate means a lot, and is
always one of the highlights of the conference.  The "International" part
of the conference title is important to us all.  PLEASE COME, and fear
not:

We all can see these are strange times in America;  but PLEASE COME, and
fear not:
