(Note: When the ASC web page crashed in March
2006, we lost probably 60 percent of the 2004 abstracts. Fortunately,
we were able to recover all session and paper titles, as well as all author
names and contact information. If you wish to obtain an abstract
that we do not have, you will need to contact the authors directly.)
