Remember to pay for parking.

 

[gimmito]

You can post !

Good reminder.

 

[Kensington Reefer]

I'm leaving my cave for the first time! How much is parking? Do i have to bring quarters? How long will this shindig last?

 

[patchin]

$2. Dollars are fine. Over between 3 & 4, best guess.

 

[gimmito]

Thanks to everyone for a great turnout today for Bob's talk !

 

[JAR]

Well worth it! Thanks to you for organizing it!

 

[gimmito]

You're welcome...we've got some great speakers lined up for the rest of the year !

It was great to finally have the privilege to meet Bob, really interesting talk with a cool perspective on the trade. Plus always good to see the BAR crowd!

 

[Not_Now_John]

Good fun, nice to put some faces to names.

 

[Crabby]

What a fun talk!

Thanks!

 

[patchin]

If I understood correctly, the collecting station is now closed. I think he should have included that in his talk. Would've added another dimension to the story and his talk.

 

[Not_Now_John]

I think he mentioned it briefly

 

[patchin]

Only during Q & A, I believe.

 

[CookieJar]

Excellent talk! He could've gone on for hours, love his enthusiasm. I found it very interesting to see how the business model works (or doesn't) with the costs & required 'pieces' to break even. Not an easy business to say the least.

I agree with Bill. I could have sat there for hours listening to how it goes down out in the field.

I also agree with Jon - good job to Jim for setting that talk up. The turnout was fabulous!

 

[gimmito]

I say next time we bring Bob out we have a stack of pizzas and beers for him and just let him talk for hours on end :beer:

 

[Kensington Reefer]

Definitely worth leaving the cave!
Always a pleasure to put faces to the names
