This year's Route 81 Conference on Commutative Algebra and Algebraic Geometry will be at Cornell University, on the weekend of October 2-3, 2004.

This year the route 81 conference is in honor of Graham Evans' retirement. Many of Graham's co-authors, friends, and students are planning on attending.

There will be talks on Saturday, October 2, and Sunday morning, October 3, and a social hike/walk on Sunday afternoon, for people who can stay until Monday.

For more information, including information on lodging (update: also a schedule and list of speakers), see the conference web page. Also see the Workshop on Resolutions (for young researchers).
