I am writing to invite you to a conference I am chairing in New York  
City on
Tuesday, November 27th, 2007, and to ask whether you could get the  
word out
to anyone you think would find it of value.

The Touro Law Center Institute for Business, Law and Technology is  
presenting
a half-day conference entitled "When Spam isn't Spam: An Unfiltered  
Look at
Self-Regulation and the Law Behind E-mail."  Up to 3 hours of CLE credit
(including 1 ethics hour) are available for attorneys attending the
conference, but non-lawyers and students will find much worthwhile
information as well.  (Please note that this is the rescheduled  
conference
originally set for this past April.)

The event seeks to educate legal and business professionals in every  
industry
about the laws and rules surrounding e-mail and spam, including;

* marketing via e-mail without spamming,
* what to do if your e-mail is blocked,
* protecting your users and customers from
spam, and
* why being legal is not enough.

Speakers at the event include Matt Leonard, CIPP and Ponemon Institute
(http://www.ponemon.org) fellow; Adam Z. Solomon of The Lustigman Firm
(http://www.lfirm.com); Brett Glass, computer journalist and founder  
of ISP
Lariat.net (http://www.lariat.net); Neil Schwartzman, Manager of  
Compliance &
ISP Relations for Return Path (http://www.returnpath.com) (who will
substitute for the unavailable Matt Blumberg); and Andrew H. Lupu,  
attorney
and former Chief Privacy Officer of CA.  The IP List's own Prof. David  
Farber
of Carnegie Mellon, world-renowned expert in technology policy, will  
give the
keynote address.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could distribute it to your  
colleagues
and communities, and/or otherwise let them know about the event.  If you
would prefer print brochures, please let me know how many you need and  
we
will send them out to you as soon as possible.  Online registration is
available at http://www.tourolaw.edu, under Continuing Legal Education.

I really appreciate anything you can do to help publicize our  
conference, and
I look forward to welcoming you and your colleagues to the event on  
November
27th.  {Jonathan}
