models natural ecosystems; ZERI is based on systems design, bringing 
social, ecological and economic elements together for sustainable development)

I apologize for the late posting, but I just heard about this at NRC last 
week, and got details this week.  I'm going and encouraging other key US 
Zero Waste experts to attend.  If you're thinking about Zero Waste, working 
on Zero Waste or hoping to train others on Zero Waste, this is a unique 
opportunity to learn from one of the world's best hands-on experts and 
practitioner in the field.

Monday, 1/28, is the last day for 7 day advance plane reservations to get 
the best airfares.  I'm flying on America West from CA for $236.  Also 
check out CheapTickets.com or www.flyswa.com (Southwest).

Hope to see you there!
