[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Now here is an example of how little
I know about real life compared to (perhaps) my theoretical knowledge
on many topics. "IAENG International Conference ICEE 2007" is
apparently a spoof and I fell for it with the publication here of
their 'conference'. Mark explained it like this to me:

> IAENG has been spamming newsgroups for *years*. It's a popular game

Does anyone know what 'IAENG' means, if anything? PAT]
