Subject: WORD(s) OF THE YEAR NOMINATIONS



Here's your chance to be with us in Chicago. If you send your comments

by about 4 p.m. CST, they will be read at the meeting late this afternoon

before the big vote. You can send them to me directly or post them on

ADS-L. I'll check mail around 4 or 4:30. And of course I'll send you

the results sometime tonight.
