At the 20th annual meeting of the Philological Association of the Carolinas
(PAC), there will be a session on Mark Twain entitled "Mark Twain in the 90s"
that was organized on the Mark Twain Forum, with all the presenters being

The accomodations are at the Hampton Inn, Rock Hill.  I'll be playing and

Friday night's banquet.  Hope to see some Mark Twain forum members there!
