Subject: MLA '93: More technology-related sessions

As an addendum to Joel Goldfield's list, here is my own list of a few
more technology-related sessions at the MLA---a list that is based
entirely on the titles of the sessions: I don't know how deeply into
these matters any of them will delve. Inevitably, several of these
overlap with sessions on closely-related topics. Because I am lazier
than Joel, I supply only the session number, title, date, and time.

Subject: Computer Equipment, Customs, and the MLA Convention

A reminder to anyone who is planning to attend the MLA convention in
Toronto from 27-30 December 1993:

If you are planning to bring a personal computer or any other computer
equipment with you to Toronto, please be sure to register it with
US customs before leaving the United States. It is also a good idea
to register newly purchased cameras or tape recorders and equipment
that looks or is new.

Registration will insure that you encounter no difficulties with US
Customs when reentering the country.
