Dear PLC 28 speakers:

We're looking forward to seeing you at the end of this week! I trust that you
have all registered, proofread your abstracts online, and arranged for
accommodations during your stay in Philadelphia. If you have any questions
regarding these matters, please email us immediately.

A few final announcements:

1. If you're going to be distributing handouts for your talk, we recommend that
you bring 40-50 copies. This is a generous estimate based on attendance at
previous PLCs. If we find that attendance this year is higher (or if you'd
rather wait until you arrive here to make photocopies), there are several copy
shops within a couple of blocks of Huntsman Hall. Visit
http://www.ling.upenn.edu/Events/PLC/plc28/Huntsman.html for more information.

2. If you're going to be using Powerpoint, other software, or audio or video
recordings, and you haven't already contacted us, please do so as soon as
possible. We're not anticipating any technical difficulties, of course, but
we'd like to be prepared just in case! We recommend that you test your
equipment onsite before your talk (during a coffee break or lunch break). If
you're bringing a laptop, it's a good idea to bring a backup CD or floppy as
well. Finally, keep in mind that the computers in the classrooms will not have
phonetic fonts, and that you will not be able to install fonts or other
software on them. 

3. The PLC registration desk will be located in the back of the MBA Cafe on the
second floor of Huntsman Hall. Once you've registered, remember to carry your
badge with you at all times. If you are planning to arrive at PLC after Friday,
Feb. 27 and you do not have a Penn ID, you'll need to have a member of the PLC
committee meet you at the Locust Street entrance in order to enter the
building. Please contact us as soon as possible (if you haven't already) so
that we can make necessary arrangments.

If you have any questions or need anything else from us, please feel free to
email. Thank you for your contributions, and we'll see you in a few days!
