Dear CCBC friends-- Several of you have indicated that you'd like to see the program for the conference I'm going to be speaking at in Beirut; and since I have a notion that it' hard to forward attachments, and it's in both Arabic and English, I'm going to simply type it in the body of this message. I hope that will be easy for those interested. (I'll just list topics, but if anyone would like names of speakers--a few of whom are from Europe and the US--please let me know.)
