Hi Jeff .. Yes I'd love to attend this workshop, since I will be over 
there for Geilo ... I assume you meant respond to you, not Rune?
I would also plan to present on the glaciers in western Canada, and 
presume it should be different to the Geilo presentation so as not to 
duplicate. A title might something like: 
"the glaciers of western Canada, stable, retreating and surging"

do you need more?
