May 26 1999 Congratulations! We have an Advisory Committee for the meeting in 2003 and Alexander and I appreciate your agreeing to serve on the committee. The first item of business is a discussion of where we would like to hold the next meeting. For various reasons both Sasha and I feel that Moscow is probably not the appropriate place for the next meeting. In this e-mail I am soliciting input from each of you. Three suggestions have been made to date, Zermatt in Switzerland, Connecticut College, and the third location (Paul Davies, please help me on this) whose name I forget. In selecting a location I think it is important that we choose a location which will be most convenient and most interesting for our European colleagues as our European colleagues have been the biggest supporters of this meeting in the past. It is for this reason that I personally am not very excited about Connecticut College, however, if the committee were to make that decision we could conduct a nice, low cost meeting. I look forward to hearing from you within the next two weeks. Thanks for your careful attention to these details. Once we have decided where we would like to go, we need to begin to think about invited speakers. For your information the preliminary cost figures which I received from the Hotel Zermatterhof is SFr195. This is a very convenient location, the hotel is excellent, and the people are extremely efficient. Arlan W. Mantz June 3 1999 Paul Davies has given me the information on the other location. It is in Greifswald Germany. Greifswald is about 100 km north of Berlin on the Baltic coast. It takes 2hrs 20 minutes by direct train from Berlin. The accommodation costs are as follows: Hotel single room 110-170 dm per nightHotel double room 150-200 dm per night Boarding House single room 60-100 dm per night Boarding House double room 100-140 dm per night Private Room 40-60 dm per night The other location is Zermatt, Switzerland. The Hotel Zermatterhof cost is SFr 195 for room and 2 meals per day. So we have two possibilities so far, and I would appreciate your response to this e-mail, so we can decide how to proceed. Arlan July 6 1999 It seems that Zermatt Switzerland was the consensus for the location for TDLS-2003. The next item of business is invited speakers. I look forward to hearing from you with suggestions. Thanks again for your attention to these details. You can send your comments and questions about the Conference to tdls@nsc.gpi.ru |
