Dear friends,
Many thanks to all the people who attended the ORIENTED Happy Hours last week in New York City and in the San Francisco Bay Area (Palo Alto).
In spite of the cancellations in Asia due to the uncertainties of SARS, our U.S. events were well attended, with 90-100 guests at both locations. Special thanks to Dr. Scott Smith, a specialist on infec-
tious diseases, who gave an informative speech about SARS to our Bay Area at-
tendees.

Our next Happy Hours are scheduled for Thursday, May 29th. Please check our website for the latest information.
