With great pain and annoyance, I have seen that my presentation has been excluded from the book of the Conference.

http://www.conferences.gr/fileadmin/shop/pdf/Atlantis_2005.pdf

The organizers have not taken not even the annoyance to give an explanation me. If my presentation had the quality to be presented in the Conference; So that it was excluded?

Because I am third-world? Or because I am Hispanic speaker? Or for some political reason more complex than I do not want to mention so far?

For me this is a shame and a sample of discrimination of the organizers.

I wait for one some explanation by this fact...

Perhaps they have some explantation, but I believe it is political, with preference given to Greek theorists and traditional theories, like Crete or Santorini. That is why so many people chose not to attend originally - the bias

Without being privy to all the facts, I believe you are right, Helios.  If the conference gave heavy support to the idea of Atlantis in South America, what would that do for the Greek tourist trade?  Sad

I never put much stock in that conference.

What kind of conference is on Atlantis and doesn't devote time to a single theory dealing with Atlantis in the Atlantic, by far and away the most popular and prevailing theory?

The 2008 conference looks to be just as bad - in Greece again, and only two days this time.

They need to place it somewhere everywhere can go, and they need to make it a week, not just a couple of days.

This power came forth out of the Atlantic Ocean. But afterwards there occurred violent earthquakes and floods; and in a single day and night of misfortune all your warlike men in a body sank into the earth, and the island of Atlantis in like manner disappeared in the depths of the sea.

So far, the two person ignobility discriminated we are of the Third World: Ronny Alonzo, from Philippine and me, from Chile.

I am strongly shocking. I did not think that this happened in European academic world of century XXI.

A great shame...

Dear Sirs, Jaime Manuschevich,

Why should we need a Conference anyways?

Atlantis will not wait for conferences, and rest assure that nothing will change this time. I really hope that they will give you some feedback as to justify this terrible "mistake".

Dear Mr Manuschevich,
 Thank you for your e-mail dated Dec 09. 2008.
 Let me assure you that it is not without remorses and pain that the editing committee decided to exclude your paper for inclusion in the Book of Proceedings.
The reason for this is that the committee felt that your paper needed improvement, but did not have the time between decision making and publication to recommend revisions.
 However, we wish to inform you that we are about to post a Call for Papers for the forthcoming 2nd International Conference "ATLANTIS 2008 - The Atlantis Hypothesis, Searching for a Lost Land" which is due to be held 10-11 Novmber 2008, in Athens and we would like to ofeer you the opportunity to submit a revised version or a new paper for this matter.
 Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience we have caused you.
 Looking forward to welcome you in the forthcoming conference ATLANTIS 2008,
 I remain,
Sincerely Yours,
Tina Fragkaki

Hi Jaime ,

That response has got to ease some of the indignation. It's good to see they aren't complete cowboys.
