My ambition is to have a large symposium discussing all aspects of APPLICATIONS of semiempirical methodology, and where it fits into the computational chemistry big picture. Since John McKelvey is organizing a symposium on parameterization and theory at the immediately preceding meeting (August 1995 in Chicago), I think it would be useful for this set of talks to focus on how we USE semiempirical methods and how we WILL USE them in the future. Thus the title of the symposium. I have already collected a set of very important and worthwhile speakers (of which, I, of course am not included, see below), but I would like to open up the symposium for a few contributed talks and a poster session on the same topic, if there is enough interest. Note also that I have spoken with Cliff Dykstra at IUPUI and he has agreed to do a special issue of THEOCHEM with papers from the symposium. The FIRM DEADLINE for the receipt of papers in my hands will be one month after the symposium. If you would like to present a poster or talk (first-come, first-served on these) please let me know as soon as possible. The deadline for abstracts in MY HANDS is October 20, 1995, so please be aware of the time constraints under which we are operating. Also, please let me know your preference for oral or poster and whether are not you are interested in contributing your work to the THEOCHEM issue. I look forward to a scientifically meaningful and interesting meeting. Please feel free to pass this on to colleagues that do not subscribe to any of the several mail exploders on which I posted this message. Also, please excuse me for multiple copies if you get it from more than one place.
