Linda, The version you were looking at was in Conftool--the conference builder where everyone submitted abstracts. We had issues this year with not being able to add discussants, etc. until they registered--some of them have yet to register. In order to build the program we needed to add time slots....the wizards behind the curtains (Lisa Kraus and Karen Hutchison) had their names added to the lineup as they built the program. I had countless inquiries about why Lisa or Karen were serving as the discussant despite providing an email explaining this predicament. Instead of having people consult Conftool with errors at this juncture, I thought it best to direct everyone to the searchable PDF version kindly mentioned by Karlis. The abstracts will go on line tomorrow on our website.
I apologize for any confusion and inconvenience. We are looking into improving the system. If there are any more questions regarding the program, please direct them to me at [log in to unmask] If something is not correct in the final program you now see on line, please consult with the chair of your session.
Thank you,
Julie

Subject: Re: SHA Conference
Thanks but no. At some point I was looking at abstracts of all the papers
on line, organized both by time and also alphabetically. This version only
has the keynote abstracts.
I even printed out a couple of pages, so I know I'm not imagining it.
Weird.
