Is anyone going to this conference, in New Orleans?
I'm going as an invited speaker. Should be fun!

Isn't it possible that you get invited? PF plays a role in the education of physics students of all levels.

If not, maybe you should get over any initial hesitation and do a little fundraising (via paypal) on the frontpage. I can promise a modest contribution. If many people give a little, it may go pretty quickly and you can be there on the 9th.

Personally I would think so, but I haven't received any invite yet :)

Probably not within a week's notice. Maybe the summer meeting?

Yeah this meeting is too soon, but summer would be great. If you learn of the right contact please let me know. Good luck again!
