Re: [AGA-mcm] RE: [Aca-cadre] convention dvd bit the dust (fwd)

...and of course, the amount of exposure and money involved has everything 
to do with it, which is one of the reasons I was dismissed from Novak's 
stupid trademark suit.  Though at the time it was a high-profile website, 
the Krib makes no money.  Likewise, the AGA DVD's are pretty low profile. 
And frankly, the ACA DVD's would have been even more so.  APC will be 
something to watch, as all the advertising dollars start to make it a 
money-making venture...
