As promised, the deadline for this registration cycle ($40) has been 
moved out to February 9th, giving everyone one more week to lock in this 
special rate (also, not bankrupting Skennedy!)  Why pay more? Call 
nooowwww!

Thanks to our Chief Programmer and Head of Registration, Amanda 
Robinson, for springing into action this morning.

If anyone has any additional concerns, please email me directly.

        My two pesos (did I mention it's 70+ degrees in Mexico yesterday and
        today? Suck it, Michiganders!) is that while concom is not
        obliged to
        give any reminders at all, and giving reminders is generally a nice
        thing to do, if it's only 50 minutes before the deadline, don't
        bother.
