...Steve hosted yet another LF conference in Springfield, Mass (I had a table there, and hung some work in the exhibit hall) - in '05 if I remember correctly.

Lots of great folks there...Richard Ritter with a then-new ultra wide LF (7x17?) - Barb Lowry from Cooke Optics, A nice Arca-Swiss table (showing the newly released Misura I believe), Blue Earth publishing, Lotus Camera had a nice setup also, plus loads more.

At any rate...nice to hear that Steve S. is doing well - and I wish him the best.
