On a brief educational CME note, the annual Frisbee Symposium, this year on "Frontiers in Cancer Cytotherapy" will be held October 19, 2000 at the Omni Hotel in New Haven, CT. Sponsored by the Yale Department of Laboratory Medicine Transfusion Medicine Group and the Frisbee Foundation, the symposium has been very popular in past years with those working in the fields of transfusion medicine, hematology and clinical pathology in general. Details of the speaker list and topics may be found at: http://info.med.yale.edu/labmed/cme/cme.html . For further registration information, please call 203-688-2441 or use the pdf files on-line. If you are planning on attending, there are a host of interesting shows that night and weekend in New Haven: the Long Wharf theatre's two stages are presenting two world premiers, one a new comedy called Modern Orthodoxy and the other a new translation of a Moliere comedy (The Bungler); the Yale rep also has a world premiere ongoing which is a drama called Rice Boy, the Oakdale theatre (just outside the city in Wallingford) has Alice Cooper doing his Halloween thing and a touring company of Godspell, the New Haven symphony has Saint Saens and Beethoven on Thursday night's program. Finally, if you want to go "leaf peeping" a 1/2 hour drive out the eastern shoreline from New Haven to the Connecticut River valley and taking in a show at the beautiful Goodspeed Opera house in Chester (a pre-Broadway musical revival called Red Hot and Blue is currently playing), perhaps with dinner or a late night snack at the Gelston House next to the theatre, is highly recommended.
