Eric Crump just posted this to a number of lists, but he can't put it
on CASLL, where he's stigmatized as a spammer. I thought some folks
might be interested, anyway.

For those of you who are interested in what's happening at the CCCC
convention in Atlanta but are unable to make the journey, the first
taste of the event is now available.
A few presenters have kindly provided texts from their presentations
(some abstracts, some papers) and several asked that we create
discussion forums so folks could respond to their ideas. You don't
have to be in Atlanta to get a taste of these sessions or to make
comments about them. In fact, given the nature of most convention
session Q&A, I reckon you all can have more of a say than people who
are here & out of reach of their computers.
So far we have the following discussion forums available:
The Vilifying Rhetoric of The Usual Suspects (David Blakesley)
