One and all,
This is just a reminder that the deadline for GSA abstracts is July
12. Paleontology has traditionally had a very strong level of
participation at GSA's annual meeting (16-19 October in Salt Lake City
this year), and the Paleo Society encourages everyone to submit an
abstract for a talk or a poster. I have included a list of PS
sponsored sessions below (contact the organizers for more
information). For further information on the whole meeting or to
submit an abstract, just point your browser to
http://www.geosociety.org/meetings/2005/.
See you there,
