<DIV><STRONG>Emerson Place Seminar September 19-22 2004 -- Now at a Special
Price! </STRONG></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Four day seminar with JAW, Robert Schoch, Robert Bauval & Jean-Paul
Bauval</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Reactions to my former notice calling attention to this intriguing but
resolutely upscale event were, without exception, enthusiastic but everyone was
scared off by the price. (Well, I <EM>did </EM>warn you!) </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I realize of course that only a very small percentage of Egyptophiles have
that kind of disposable income, and the few on this list who do, know who
they are. I know, I know ...it's a lot of money, but people who have it do
not think twice about spending that much on a long weekend to Paris or even New
York, stay in a suite at the Plaza, go to the Met or ballet or top-of-the-line
tickets to a Broadway show or two, five-star meals wherever, pay a visit the
Bronx Zoo or the Republican Convention... And presto! the same
amount has been spent. Right? Just that most people in that income bracket
are not used to spending that much on brain exercise...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyway, I've been given a special price for people on my list: $3500
for 2 instead of $5000 and $2000 for a single. (Work it out for yourself;
it's not bad at all! If you're in that sort of income bracket in the
first place, of course. If interested pull up <A

take it from there. Over to you. </DIV>

<DIV><STRONG>THE SPHINX LIVES -- JAW ON MSNBC</STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV>No sooner do the Quackademics think they've sunk us into the
quibblemire than interest comes from unexpected quarters. I'm pleased to
report that the Technology & Science department at the MSNBC news
website has picked up the story after all these years. </DIV>

<DIV>Experience teaches me that dealing with the mainstream media is always like
trying to befriend a tiger by hand-feeding it steaks. One wrong move
and you get your arm chewed off, or just an insatiably hungry tiger...</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In any event, I was pleased by this brief but informative piece, and think
you will be too. If it had appeared on the Fox news site I would have
been obliged to call it 'fair and balanced', which would have complicated
matters, since this would have the been the first time anyone (outside the Fox
network) had ever uttered those words other than sarcastically. On MSNBC,
however, there is no need for further roundabout explanation. It's well
done and concentrates on the matter immediately to hand -- which is of course to
try to generate the money needed for the interminably postponed geo-panel.
