>Our October meeting of the northern Virginia chapter of IEEE
>Communications Society has been cancelled.  Our speaker, Lou 
>Ippolito, had a change in plans and sends his regrets.  There was 
>good interest in his talk, so we will be sure to schedule him for 
>another month.
>
>The next meeting is November 27, 2001, at the Reston TRW 
>building, 12011 Sunset Hills Road, Reston, VA. beginning at 6:00 
>p.m.  
>
>Our honored speaker will be Prof. David Berley, who will be 
>discussing the new Laser Interferometric Gravity Wave 
>Observatories. The technology that is capable of discerning length 
>differences on the order of the diameter of a hydrogen atom is 
>fantastically complex and immensely interesting. 
>
>This basic research will lead to advances in detection theory and 
>noise estimation, as well as basic technological advances in lasers 
>and photonics and possibly position location and ranging systems 
>that our engineering community will be able to use in the next 
>generation of communications systems.
>
>Come see the future.  This promises to be a fascinating talk.  
>Professor Berley is with the Dept of Physics, University of 
>Maryland, and is associated with the LIGO project management 
>team.
>
>Hope to see you all on November 27th.
