Well, chances are that your floats are being pushed to the end of
the document (most likely by a misguided [h] parameter on a
\begin{figure} or \begin{table}). If on the other hand, it turns
out to be a rare case of there are just too many floats in close
succession, you can use the style option morefloats.sty,
available from
ymir.claremont.edu:[anonymous.tex.inputs.latex-contrib]morefloats.sty
