[Atmob-discuss] OT: Seeking a speaker on "String Theory"

[Lou Cohen]

Thanks everyone for the leads! I¹ll let you know where they take me.

The show and talk, if we can schedule one, will be open to the public. The
show is scheduled for 9/18/08 ­ 10/24/08. I don¹t have a date for a
reception yet, and of course no date for the talk. The location will be at
Suffolk¹s School of Art, 75 Arlington Street, Boston.

-Lou
