Dear WSC97 distribution list members,

Thank you for your interest in the WSC, and for all your kind words of
encouragement and gratitude.  Over the next week or so, I will continue
to update the WSC web page at http://www.math.utoronto.ca/jjchew/wsc97,
in particular adding a lot more photos and cleaning up the ones that are
there.  When I've had a little bit more sleep, I'll also put together
my own memories of the event into a post mortem report.

I hope I can say without infringing on Joel's intellectual property
rights[1] that I am deeply grateful to the rest of the WSC Committee
staff for their efforts in making the even run smoothly, to Sherrie
Saint John and Gregg Foster for their tireless volunteerism, to ATG of
Boston for supplying our digital camera, to all the players for putting
on such a good show, and particularly to Adam Logan for his assistance
every day in producing the Internet feed.

Finally, if you enjoyed this coverage and/or the simulcast on MarlDOoM, I would
appreciate it if you would each individually take the time to write to
the NSA and say so; I think doing so would help make sure that the Internet
coverage of the next NSA WSC is even better than this year's.

John

[1] Joel: can you post a copy of your acceptance speech, and all the people
    you thanked, optionally omitting the contents of the D.C. phone book?
