Public access to event proceedings

This page will be added to on a regular basis and currently
contains links to download pages for the following:

An SCI spokeswoman said: ‘Our conferences have an excellent reputation around
the world. People often ask us for copies of the proceedings
of our events, and we are delighted that there is now an easy
way for Members to take advantage of their Membership and
have direct access to these documents, even if they were not
able to attend the events in person.’

 Have
you ever wanted to make a phone call but are not sure
where you’re dialling? Or wondered if a particular
organisation really is where it says it is?
Fonefinder — http://www.fonefinder.net/helpfaq.html
— can help. This website finds the geographical
location of any phone number in the world. You key
in a phone number, and it will give you the city,
state, country, a flag, map, and links to the area.
Fone Finder can also find the country code, area code
and prefix given the city name.
Technically minded people might be interested in
the explanation of how this is done, and a useful
FAQ tells you more about the service and the person
behind it, Walt Brukaker.
