Thanks goes out to McMark for hosting. Dr Evil for flying in and lending his expertise. It was great to see everyone, meet new faces especially the 912 crowd, raise $134 for the Shortridge build (thank you to all the bidders, winners, and one special exhibitor), and to everyone for making this a really awesome event.
Thanks again! |

Noel and I are finally home and had a great trip. What a great turn out! I really enjoyed the 912 crowd and their added transmission oddities.
Richard, great food and I enjoyed meeting you. Randy, great technical pictures! I will definitely be using them in the upcoming rebuild video as they perfectly show the important parts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I'll need to get your info for credit. Andy, thanks for waiting for me on Sat night and for the place to crash. It was good seeing you again since it had been since '05 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Mark, you are a superstar, dont tell yourself otherwise ( (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) ). If it were not for your generosity this would not have been possible. Thanks for putting up with everyone and being a most gracious host. Rob Sime, thanks for being the catalyst for this event. You have done me and all of the others a great service in making sure this event did not die soon after its conception. I hope you enjoy your MSZd box (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) RobW, always good to see you. Thank you for bringing the items for auction and for heading it up. Also, thank you for pitching in with some of the tranz work. Observers/helpers, you are priceless. The observers always learn a lot and become like my left hand (the right one you dont want to be (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ). Everyone, I am constantly flattered at the trust that you place in me and work hard to deserve it. I was very flattered by many of your words and actions. You people make doing these clinics such a pleasure. Even though I barely sleep, work long hours, and feel like I was hit by a truck every night, I keep coming back because of the great people that I get to hang out with and teach. I'm a bit spent for now, maybe more later. |
