20th Annual New Mexico Symposium Oral Program

10 November 2004

We will have the capabilities of Power Point on a laptop with projection or an overhead projector. For Power Point talks, we would like everyone to give us their Power Point file in advance so that we can load them onto one laptop (and check that they work all right). Please upload them using anonymous ftp to ftp.aoc.nrao.edu and change directory to incoming/nmsymposium to upload your file. Name your file with your last name so I can identify it. Please, upload your file by Tuesday noon so that I can use the afternoon to check them.
