I too would like to find a roommate (nonsmoking male) for the conference. I already have a reservation at the conference hotel. I posted this on the AoIR web page for such things, but got no responses. Possibly this will work better. Possibly this will only help people to better avoid interacting with me! ============================================================ Ronald E.
