Man!! A guy can't even take off for a week without having three pages of forum to plow through!!

Just got back from the Provo symposium - great trip - camped out, back and there. The symposium was as enlightening as symposia always are. Saw a lot of AAW tee-shirts walking around and in the peanut gallery. Anyone else there?

The only problem I have is with the dates - this year, and next - the two are too close together! I have a show coming up this weekend, but would have scheduled accordingly if there had been some weeks between. Having missed last years because of illness, I was hoping to hit Louisville this year and Portland is also out next. I also missed a trade show - BYU, you know....

I've attended lots of symposia over the past 35 years in a variety of disciplines, and have NEVER been disappointed. I am always amazed that the important stuff showing up in the work and working is seldom in my notes - osmosis, "taking the air around...", whatever; I envy all of you going to Louisville and double envy those of you hopping from Provo to AAW.

Have a good one - soak it up!!
