I just received this!

"Dear All,

We are very happy to announce this year's European Objectivist Conference, iCon 2005. Once again London will be its stage, 9-11 September its dates.

Last year's success helped set the stage for this year, and we hope every one of you who attended last year will do so this year. Those of you who couldn't make it last year, well, you can't afford to miss 2 conferences in a row!

This is an *advance notice*, as the website is not yet available. However, we can tell you the speakers will be Robert Mayhew, John Lewis, Scott McConnell, Dina Schein Garmong, Kristi Hall, and Adam Smith.

Details about the lectures will be available on the iCon 2005 website soon; we will contact you as soon as the website is live, which is expected to be within 2 weeks. Best Premises,

             The iCon2005 Team,
             Kristine Lowe, Richard Brooke, Adam Smith, Merlijn Sluis"

Well, I enjoyed the last conference immensely, so I'll most definetly be there.
