Hi, folks,

There is still time to register for tomorrow's virtual conference, but if you haven't done so yet, don't delay further because the organizers will be busy with the conference itself before and during the event.  Last night, my wife Connie Benson and I watched the 1939 version of Wuthering Heights starring Laurence Olivier as Heathcliff.  We can't wait to hear Susan Kavaler Adler's psychohistorical take on this cinematic classic of a literary classic.  For more about this and the other five presentations tomorrow, see Ken's earlier message.
