Conference location
-------------------
ISESS Whistler 1997: A conference on environmental informatics
with a venue that you'll not forget.
Whistler Mountain and its companion Blackcomb form the backdrop
for arguably the premier ski and outdoors alpine recreation location
of North America, loacted just 105 kms North of Vancouver (rated
amongst the 10 most beautiful cities in the world). The route to
Whistler uses the breathtaking Sea to Sky highway North from the city.
The conference venue is the elegant Delta Whistler Resort. Special
conference rates have been negotiated (CDN$ 109+tax). Arrangement for
computers and connections to the internet are available right at
the hotel.
Transportation from Vancouver airport to Whistler is very inexpensive
and frequent.

>From NOW Fight The Right March 4/14/96
http://now.org:80/issues/right/96march.html
To bring together women, men and children from across the country to send
a clear message to policy makers: the majority of people denounce the
divisive hate-mongering of the right-wing; and will -- with our time,
money and votes -- actively support affirmative action; economic justice;
abortion rights and reproductive freedom; civil rights for people of
color; lesbian, gay and bisexual rights and efforts to end violence
against women.

while i was driving home from work this evening i was thinking about (a)
ash wednesday; (b) religious observation (my ashes are still visible from
this morning; (c) NOW (i had just checked out their web page); (d) NOW's
Fight the Right March; (e) the current ABIGAILS-L's NOW thread; (f) a
recent party of BA-CYBERDYKES; (g) politics & religion.
then i got what i thought was a brilliant idea: why doesn't the internet
women's community warch as a contingent in NOW's March Against the Right?
subscribers from ABIGAILS-L, WOAH-HERSTORY, CATTS-CLAWS, BEIJING95-L,
POLWOMAN, FEMJUR, BREAST-CANCER, SPIDERWOMAN, SAPPHO, SYSTERS, VIRTUAL
SISTERHOOD, WMST, WOMEN-ONLINE, etc in other words, a veritable realtime
meeting of Joan Korenman's Index could march together in support of the
progressive agenda. we could all carry banners & signs of our different
lists & proudly display our email addresses & web urls. people always
speculate about women on the net--we could show them in realtime how
powerful we as Women Online Against The Right (WOAR) are!
NOW is sponsoring a list NOW-MARCH-LIST. but i am interested in what
y'all think. if this seems like a good idea, let's crosspost it to other
lists.
