Are There Any Messages for Me?

RENSKY: Good afternoon. I’m Dr. Rensky, R-E-N-S-K-Y.

REGISTRAR: Good afternoon, Dr. Rensky. Welcome to the conference. Did you have a good trip?

RENSKY: Very good, thank you.

REGISTRAR: Let me see if everything is all right with your registration fee… It’s OK. Here’s your conference folder. It contains the conference program, abstracts of the papers, your identification badge, and some local maps.

RENSKY: Oh, fine. Thank you. Are there any messages for me?

REGISTRAR: No, there’re none here. You might want to check with the message center in the Registration Hall over there. The bulletin boards are identified by the name and registration number of the participant.

RENSKY: Thank you. I’ll have a look.

REGISTRAR: Also I’d like to call your attention to the notice boards just opposite the registration counter. All the information about current changes in the program will be postered there.

RENSKY: Thank you for the information. Good bye.

REGISTRAR: Good bye, Dr. Rensky. Good luck to you.
