I wanted to take a moment and let you know about an event at the University
of
Cincinnati and other locations around the world next Thursday, April 5.  It
is
called Main Event 2001 from a group called Women Future.  It is a one day
event and
will have business leaders (mainly women) from around the world holding
forums
to discuss many issues.  Some locally and some via satellite.  You can find
out
more about the event and other locations worldwide by using the link below
and
go to womenfuture.com.

I know about this event because Accenture, the company my wife works for, is
one
of the sponsors and she has been involved in the planning.  I am passing on
the
information as a courtesy to all of the ladies in my e-mail address book.  I
believe the event is open to the public, so feel free to pass this on.
