[APML] (Of interest to Pacific NW imagers) Imaging the Sky 2005Conference
All,
I know I passed this along last month. I've been talking with Rick Kang
and he tells me as of early this week there are 29 folks signed up so
far, still plenty of room. It's a 1-day conference on July 23rd for
$30. It takes place outside Portland OR. Unless something comes up I'll
be there, gotta make room reservations pretty soon I guess. 8-)
