1. Planning:
|
|
The entire planning process for bringing about a successful National carcinoid meeting is much more complex than most people even suspect.

Never explain--your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.

2. Physical Needs:
|
|
In my opinion, very little attention has been paid, in the earlier meetings, to the physicel needs of the “noids” themselves.
|
|
|
|
Needs such as ...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Rest ...
|
|
(a) Provide sufficient time between sessions plus rooms in the conference hotel for “noids” (those not staying in the hotel) to take afternoon (and other) needed naps.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nutrition ...
|
(b) Provide for food to be “grazed” throughout the meeting; not heavy breakfasts and lunches.
