Preface: ..Howard Bloom's video and teleconference was shown late on Saturday near midnight. Many of the attendees had to take the last Shuttle back to the Crown Plaza Hotel. The conference organizers decided to play Bloom's video again on Sunday at 8 am. I was fortunate to get a ride from one of the attendees at the Crown Plaza Hotel who missed the Saturday showing. So I got to see Bloom's visionary presentation again. Here are the lectures I attended with notes taken at the conference. For those who wish to have the entire transcript of the ACC2003 Conference on DVD, order it from their official site.
