    Greetings NCS Members:

    The May meeting is only three weeks away and I have been "underwhelmed"
    by the number of reservations I have received! If you plan to attend this
    event, please, please send in your reservations (and checks!) soon. I must
    give a headcount to the embassy in only two weeks.

    The opportunity to attend an event at an embassy has been the centerpiece of
    program planning for the National Capital Section AIChE for many years. The
    Finns have graciously allowed us to use space in their embassy as well as
    provide the speaker for the evening. The menu is enticing, and the
    speaker's topic is interesting. Let me hear from you.

    Bill
