Kathy Jo,

Here's info on another CP conference (unfortunately just over for this
year)   :-(

http://www.ucp.org/ucp_generalsub.cfm/1/12438

The people at Family Village at the Waisman center at UW-Madison can
probably also provide a lot of info on conferences and other CP related info
in your area.

Kendall

An unreasonable man (but my wife says that's redundant!)

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one
persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress
depends on the unreasonable man.

-George Bernard Shaw 1856-1950
