Oh waoh super cool! Maybe you can send him the email template I sent out the other day as the "letter". Maybe you can send it in the email and attach it as a PDF with a nice heading and all that goodness. 

You can send it to me first if you want me to look over it.

Thanks Bernadette!

So there is http://www.efax.com/. Last time I used that it was free.

If not google "Free Internet Fax". If eFax doesn't work you can try http://faxzero.com/.

Here's the application for Sibley Hall: http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/Resguide/BechtelApplication.pdf. Put a range of dates so that Reservations can let us know the availability of the entire week. Try to fax this out by today if you can. Thanks!

Also, Alkey-- you're an engineer right? Do you have a calcium log-in? If so there's nice rooms in Stanley Hall.  Lau Auditorium holds 120 people. http://qb3.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/Calcium40.pl

I am not sure what calcium login is. Maybe its only for bioe kids because stanley is their building.

Ohh gotcha, okay, I found the non-member way to request a room in Stanley. Let's see if this works! Otherwise, might need to hunt down a bioE student.
