>From my perspective, a one-time invitation today of how to find me - is enough for people I'd love to meet. At the IOLI conventions in the U.S., lodging, meals, lectures, sales rooms and activities are all in one hotel, making a lunch meeting fairly easy to organize. This is not the case during the 3-day business portion of OIDFA Congresses. There have to be multiple hotels because they are not able to accommodate everyone in one hotel. There does not appear to be much lunch time on the schedule, if we wish to attend all the lectures at the Congress venues. And, I remember it takes a long time for servers to take food orders from a group of chattering women, wait time to prepare the food, time deliver the food, time to eat, and then the complications of paying for it. All with people whose first language is not English. Jeri
