There's a lot of sci/tech/med going on at this year's SAA meeting in 
Orlando (see 
 for the 
full program).  If I've mucked up or missed any sessions in the list 
below, feel free to post additions and corrections.  And for the 
benefit of those of us who are unable to make this year's meeting, I 
hope the presenters and/or attendees will report to us next month on 
the sessions.
