Good luck with this Steve, I wish I could go we have an event the same time here in Toronto. I am dying to see Montys setup and we hope to have him up here in Toronto sometime soon.

It is too bad that you scheduled it to conflict with the largest exhibition of professional camera equipment as well as seminars in the country that takes place at the Javits Center in NYC on the 23 to 25th. Some people just might want to do both.

i am there!

Bob, what's with the vitriol? What do you gain from a post like that?

[climbabout]

As a clarification - our group"s activities revolve around the Raid our Gallery Cancer Benefit, which we sponsor. The date of which is determined by Middlesex Hospital.

Bob, what's with the vitriol? What do you gain from a post like that?

No vitirol. Just a question.

Perhaps if you were spending upwards of $40,000.00 to exhibit and man booths at a show you would understand that conflicts in the general geographic area are not always appreciated.

And the explanation that it is tied into another event does help to explain some of it.

It's always great to hear about New England gatherings...and what a treat to have Monty with you -- one of the nicest, brightest people in the community. I know the folks in Canada will also be having a fabulous time together as well. If Ted were here, I'm betting he'd be feverishly trying to find a way to get to Toronto by way of Connecticut, or vice versa!
