    Hi Mike, <br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp; Writing to you in my Smalltalk Solutions organizing capacity. I'm
    looking around for possible talks, and just scrolling back through
    recent mailing list postings I saw your name, and remembered you as
    doing some pretty interesting work, but I don't think we've ever had
    you speak at Smalltalk Solutions. Is that something you might be
    interested in doing? OK, I'm casting about because the submission
    deadline is actually tomorrow, but if you're interested, we can put
    you down as possible and you don't have to get things together quite
    that quickly.<br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Thanks,<br>
    &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Alan<br>
