Linda, 
 
Maybe you haven't renewed your membership which would have expired at the end of the year and consequentially you got blocked. Just a thought.

Subject: Re: SHA Conference

Thanks but no.  At some point I was looking at abstracts of all the papers

has the keynote abstracts.
I even printed out a couple of pages, so I know I'm not imagining it.
Weird.
