October is only a few short moths away and the registration page for FIRE 2003 is open. This year we are going to be enjoying the �Tradition of Southern Hospitality� in Charleston, South Carolina. We will be at the Embassy Suites Hotel Airport-Convention Ctr. from October 12-14.

What is FIRE? FIRE (FOCUS Inter-Regional Exchange) is a user conference sponsored by CARFUSE in an effort to promote the exchange of ideas and facilitate learning about Information Builders products, specifically FOCUS and WebFOCUS beyond our traditional regional borders.

Charleston is a wonderful location and in October we will have perfect weather. We will also have spacious facilities, special events, and valuable presentations. All of this with good rates for attendees, guests, and rooms. Plan to spend a few extra days so you have time to enjoy the history and charm of Charleston.

We have some opening for presentations, so, if you are interested in presenting a paper, we would like to hear from you. To find out more about presenting please contact Matt Holway via email at mph@techstyle.org or at phone 919-361-5377.

You can get all of the details about the conference and register at our website http://www.carfuse.org/Fireindex_new.htm.

Thanks, and we�ll see you in Charleston.
