I'm re-posting this announcement of the workshops Vince Pitelka will be
offering in the Pacific Northwest (or Southwest for you Canadians). There is
much more complete information on each of the workshops along with
background information on Vince available through my web site:
http://www2.memes.com/mmpots

All the workshops are about half full at this point, so if you've been
putting off signing up and sending in your deposits, it's still not too
late. The first of these is less than a month away now though, so let's get
those decisions made. It does make it lots easier for us organizers to plan
and get all the necessary information to you if you will make your
reservations as soon as possible now.
