We have had a wonderful response to the call for papers for the 2009 
HES meetings, but some individuals have not offered a proposal 
because they are unsure about funding for travel arrangements. 
Because of this, I have decided to extend the deadline by a couple of 
weeks and keep the proposal-submission website live for a time yet. 
You may submit your abstract by going to www.hes-conference2009.com.

If you have any questions about the conference, please email me 
directly at <[log in to unmask]>[log in to unmask] The 
conference website, which includes hotel information, will be going 
live in the next couple of days.

Best wishes,

Steve Medema
President-Elect, HES
