[K12OSN] 2007 FOSSED/NELS conference is fast approaching! Register today!

[Ben Nickell]

I'm looking to attend FOSSED/Gould   would you recommend flying to MHT 
and renting a car from there?  Are there other shuttles or travel 
secrets you could share?  Will get registered today or tomorrow if 
funding comes through. 

Thanks,
Ben Nickell
