"The Telecom Pie Is Growing: But Who Gets What?" - (roughly OCR'd)
[am still waiting for an updated schedule, but here's the original in the meantime. Known corrections are Annunziata will not be representing AT&T, and e.spire's cancellation has WinStar (WCII) taking their Tues slots (3:00 and 3:30). Don't know who fills WCII's previously scheduled Wed slot]
