Conference news

It was a shame to learn today that the U2 academic conference has been postponed due to the current economic woes. Everything else and everyone else is getting delayed, cancelled, laid off, cut, or cut back too, so I can't say it's very surprising. There may be a silver lining, however, since the hope is to look at U2's tour schedule and explore "possibilities for having the conference in a city close to their concert dates."
