    Good Morning All,

    With a go-ahead from the List Director, I am posting this email to advise
    that I am traveling to

    Toronto - May30th - June 8th
    Orlando - June 8th - June 13th
    London - June 14th - June 18th
    Hong Kong - June 19th - June 20th.
    Back to Australia.

    If there is anyone based in these places, that may either have some travel
    advice or would like to catch up, I would be very greatful.

    As people have seen by my posts. My main interest is the symbiotic
    relationship between cognition and knowledge in the decision making
    process, and the transformation of Data into Information into Intelligence
    into Knowledge.

    Thanks for your time.

    Regards
    Tony Nolan
