    A small but potentially important correction (as noted by alert
reader Stephen Kearney---as Dave Barry might say): The Photo Fair
function that was mentioned as being in San Jose, which the NSA
meeting has traditionally followed, is this time in San Mateo.
    I've not been there but it's in Fiesta Hall at the San Mateo
Expo Center at 2495 So. Delaware St.  My map shows this to be close
 to the Bay Meadows track in the middle of El Camino, 92, 101, and
East Hillsdale. Preferred route appears to be NE on 25th Ave from 
El Camino. 9A to 4P on Sat. $6.  Gives ample time to grab something
to eat before the NSA meeting.  And usually a good place to find
stereo equipment.
