advantage of cheaper flights than were available out of YVR, so you might look
into that.<BR><BR>I'm waiting on confirmed availability, but I'll register as

<DIV align=left><FONT size=3>Jim Todd is the Planning & Program
Chairman for this event, and he will be providing more detailed information
later. In order to secure the best possible hotel discount and to know
how large a block of rooms to reserve, please register for the event as soon
as possible at <A title=http://www.psubs.org/convention/2014
class=moz-txt-link-freetext href="http://www.psubs.org/convention/2014"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://www.psubs.org/convention/2014</A>. We
will announce the name of the official headquarters hotel soon, and of
course you are free to choose another hotel accommodation if you
prefer. Several of the hotel websites are already indicating "No rooms
available," so the sooner you can respond, the better.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV align=left> </DIV>
<DIV align=left><FONT size=3>IMPORTANT!!: <U>To cross the border into
Canada for the Nuytco tour, every person no matter what age must present a
valid passport</U>. If you do not have an up-to-date passport I would
strongly suggest you apply for or renew your passport ASAP. More on
this later.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV align=left><FONT size=3>Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is 1 hour
40 minutes from Bellingham. Vancouver International Airport is 50
miles or about 1 hour from Bellingham. If your departure point is
within the Unites States, flying into Seattle-Tacoma is likely to be
somewhat cheaper.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV align=left><FONT size=3>Some of you toured Nuytco during our convention
several years ago. Dr. Phil has expanded the facility substantially
since then to accommodate greater manufacturing activities. There are
presently a number of subs under construction. See <A
