Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed From: Bob LeChevalier-Logical Language Group LogFest 2000, our annual gathering at my house in Fairfax VA near Washington DC on the weekend 5-6 August, is now only a few weeks away. I have had rather few definite statements regarding people's plans to attend, and would like to hear from you if you are coming (or at least thinking about doing so). If you are uncertain, telling me when you will know will allow me to check back with you directly. I am shortly going to start planning, and the number of people attending is always the key factor. As usual, we can handle early arrivals (many arrive on Friday night), and with some limitations this year, late departures; most LogFest guests from out of town sleep in our guest-rooms - we have a fair supply of blankets and sleeping bags, though we certainly don't mind people bring their own sleeping bag. We ask for donations to cover food and other expenses, which tend to average around $25-$30 per person for the whole weekend. For those unfamiliar with Logfest, it is mostly informal, with the only scheduled activity being the annual meeting of the Logical Language Group, Inc. on Sunday morning at 1030AM EDT (we also get on IRC at regular intervals to involve Lojbanists who cannot be present). We do whatever the people who attend want to do, which may include Lojban conversation, lessons, technical discussions, or socializing. I will of course be there, as will John Cowan. Fluent Lojbanist Nick Nicholas was planning to attend at last word, and pc has threatened to come for the first time in several years, so this could be one of the most interesting gatherings in a long while. Attendance most years has been between 10 and 20, but we could well set a record this year (the current record is 24). lojbab -- lojbab lojbab@lojban.org Bob LeChevalier, President, The Logical Language Group, Inc. 2904 Beau Lane, Fairfax VA 22031-1303 USA 703-385-0273 Artificial language Loglan/Lojban: http://www.lojban.org
