> dinner on Thursday night at 7, followed by an orienting session at > approximately 8:30. Perhaps this is just a side effect of one of my pet peeves, but I am very pleased that Inkshed 14 will have an ORIENTING session instead of the usual ORIENTATION session. (All else being equal, which of course it almost never is, I prefer that words signifying actions not end in -ATION. Tho that does peeve me less than when they go through the noun form and return as verbs with an extra syllable or two (e.g., ORIENT-->ORIENTATION-->ORIENTATE). There is, somewhere in rhetoric, a Greek name for this particular scheme, but I can't bring it to mind at the moment.) Rick
