[Promotion-technology] Fwd: 2008 CSUN Conference * Important Reminders

Wed Jan 30 10:30:24 CST 2008

Gary:

To get in the exhibit hall, and to attend any of the sessions
elsewhere you will have to register.

In previous years access to the Exhibit Halls  was free the last
day, primarily intended for local people.  The exhibitors like that
as it increases their traffic, giving them more bang fur the buck.

Dave, do you normally register? I assume in order to get into the
hall this 
is not optional?

Any other thoughts about the conference will be helpful either via
email or 
call at 573.882.2561.
