The Opening Reception waheld in the Los Angeles Library where attendees intermingled at multiple levels with each other and with anexcellent assortment of food. The highlight of the social program was an excursion to the Getty Center, which isupported by an endowment in the billions of dollars. For the scientific program, there were approximately 46abstracts, which corresponded to about 40% formal presentations and 60% posters. The organizers of thescientific program made every effort to have a balanced program - not one based primarily on marcromolecules.In this objective, they succeeded admirably as the meeting certainly had something of interest for scientists inmany disciplines, especially those with a specialty in powder diffraction.
