I checked them when concluding the friday13.html. They are well put up on
the ISOC website. There was some about the layout etc. but the difficulty
I have is the length. The 8 pages they/you are asking for vs. the 40 I
have is not a small difference.

One purpose of this paper is to show some of the spectrum of topics that I
could present. Based on the feedback I could then choose something
specific to concentrate on or try to work the thing as a whole .. or
something?

At least a lot of feedback I've received from people who I don't know that
well before has been that I shouldn't cut anything away at this point. If
I, as an amateur, try to shorten the text I might take something essential
away so that it would never show up to you there. Do you agree?

An abstract would be in a place anyway .. although the (automatically
generated) table of contents shows it quite well?

I didn't have any printing credits nor money to buy them so I couldn't
have the text on paper before but yesterday I borrowed some I have it now.
Paper always brings out mistakes and other weaknessess so it's quite
important. I also have Don's book now! Some sociology student friends of
mine, by the way, were quite interested in both prints as I showed them
yesterday.

I wonder what the greeting card would say?-)

You are absolutely correct about the situation. Monday is an echo of the
weekend. Especially when you make notes during the Sunday-rest and write
them the next day trying to create the same atmosphere. We did go to the
Sauna, ate well and slept well afterwars :) (intentionaly typo?)

Looking forward to your comments,
trying to figure out mine.

(but first I need to scan some pictures .. wonder how to include them?)
((yes i know the fig1 fig2 fig3 thing was explained in the guide))

Thanks once again for your time,
can't tell you how I appreciate it.
