    <p>Hello folks.  I have dropped the ball on this.  I tried to book a
      venue for the reception.  This is some months ago, at the House of
      Blues.  I was not able to get them to commit.</p>
    <p>Since then, I have had a personal scheduling matter come up that
      makes it impossible for me to be in San Diego at the time of the
      INTA meeting.</p>
    <p>If somebody has the energy to try to make this work, that would
      be most excellent.  The required steps would include:</p>
    <ul>
      <li>nail down the date and time (I assume the evening of the 20th
        but I suppose it could be at some other time, but we can't do
        the evening of the 19th because that is Meet the Bloggers)</li>
      <li>nail down the venue</li>
      <li>collect contributions from listserv members</li>
      <li>publicize the event</li>
    </ul>
    <p>So if someone wants to volunteer to do this, that would be most
      excellent<br>
    </p>
