Dear Colleague
I'm writing to draw your attention to what looks to be a conference being held at the University of Toronto in honour of the Marshall McLuhan centenary. It would be great to see you there. It certainly promises to be a great event. The organizers have assembled an amazing roster of speakers and events.
Please also distribute this information to any students, colleagues, or others who might be interested.
