Dear Rob -
	Without commenting on product introductions that may or may not 
occur, or may or may not be planned, I have to clear something up for
you.  Apple does not decide when the MacWorld Expos occur.  In fact, if
you realized how little pull we have with Mitch Hall and Associates, the 
folks that put on the MacWorld Expo, you would never have made this 
asserition.
	The story that I have heard about the change in schedule is very
simple: Mitch Hall and Associates forgot to sign up with the Mascone 
Center for their usual date.  When they realized this, the first available
date was the current one.  Nothing sinister here.
	I think that this situation points out something that should be
taken into account when examing things that happen in the MacWorld, and
in the world in general.  Quite often it is something totally inoccent
that people try to interpert into something with sinister implications.
Maybe you should go back and think about the Eric Drexler quote that 
you have for you signature.
