Best let SFABAAPS know so they can figure it in their financials. There is a significant cost involved and the offsetting revenue items sell at auction, so cost recovery is speculative. Last year we estimated break even. We have no idea whether we did break even on it or not, because that kind of auction data wasn't recorded. The hobby veterans know the value of having Ray around but the greener folks might need some persuasion or even reject the idea unless the AGA underwrites that particular cost. Otoh, it could be mute. Ray usually books up over a year out and this year he's only showing dates through Feb 2006. He might be cutting back his tour after all. sh --- Phil Edwards <biotypical@hotmail.com> wrote: > Will do!
