Thanks Tom for all the work and preparation for getting the show together this year - great job!

I too, would like to thank all the vendors and the presenters at Tom's show in High Point. It looked like everyone was enjoying themselves. I was a little under the weather and only stayed until 3:00 on Saturday before returning back home. I did meet "teh" one and only Billy V. A real nice fellow. Bought one of his books and enjoyed listening to some of the conversations around him with other attendees. WIsh I could have stayed longer. I wanted to meet more of the fellows whose names appear here. Maybe I'll have another chance to do so next year.

Only have one minor suggestion. It would help a lot if the presenters had some kind of loud speaker system to project their voice to the group. It was very difficult to hear beyond the 3rd row, because of the noise from the vendor area and the constant public announcements. Tom is to be congratulated for doing such a fine job. Putting on a show like this is time consuming and energy draining. Thanks one and all.

the presenters did have speaker systems. whether they all used them or not I don't know. But in the seminars I attended they did.

I invested heavily in audio-visual equipment this year and it worked to perfection. A couple of presenters, however, opted not to use the microphones and speakers. Next year I may make it mandatory that they use the system.
