I guess the ACS just wrapped up yesterday:
Fall 2008 National Meeting & Exposition
236th ACS National Meeting & Exposition
August 17-21, 2008
Philadelphia, PA, USA
Just in time for me to put a news item about, a day late for it to do
any good. Ah well.
As I said, news is not my forte.

'Cause it was too long. The instructions said, I quote:
"Length: One page total per abstract. Longer abstracts will be edited
to one page."
http://iccf-14.org/documents/AbstractInstructions.pdf
You would be surprised how many authors ignored that and other
instructions. Or maybe you wouldn't, but anyway, I cut 'em.
One of the many advantages of working with Navy and ex-Navy people is
that they mean what they say, and when they set a rule they enforce
it. For example, at ICCF-14 the sessions started on time, and
presentations were delivered on schedule.
