Board: As per the email that just went out, Luis will speak at our club. As this is my first invited speaker from far away lands I would like guidance on how to address the following issues: * Airfare. I am comfortable paying but should I make the reservations for him or should we reimburse. * Lodging. I will forward his preference. * Tour Guide. A retired president has its advantage as Bob was able to show speakers around prior to the meeting. I can try and get the day off but I would like to offer this opportunity here first. * Misc. Anything I am missing? Thanks! -Paul ************************************************************************* Paul M. Wallace, PhD. Tel.
