Dear Colleagues,

hi. The 1st annual St. Louis Area Methods Meeting (SLAMM) will be held 
Friday, April 18 at WU. As usual we will start at 10:30 with Sid Chib then 
lunch at noon, followed by 3 papers beginning at 1:30pm. We run all 
afternoon, so each paper gets a full hearing.

Betsy Sinclair, Robert Walker, John Freeman/Patrick Brandt are already 
scheduled to present.  We hope any interested party can make it.  If you 
are coming, please register at slamm.wustl.edu so we can plan meals 
(including a lavish post-conference dinner).  Registration is free because 
we don't need townhouses near Dupont Circle.

More details on the meeting to follow.

cheers,

-jeff
