[Air-l] Sessions about the Internet: August 16, Friday, Chicago, IL

[bakera at ohiou.edu]

Hello, as I solicited papers from this list as well as through The 
American Sociological Association, I wanted to extend an invitation 
to you to attend these two panels containing the work of some A(O)IR 
members.  If anyone is in Chicago on August  16th, this Friday and 
can get to the Chicago Hilton and Palmer House hotels, there are two 
session you could drop in and see.  Please write me for the room 
numbers which I will have on Thursday.  Thanks!
