err, scratch the Dallas club thing. He's part of the Houston Club. All you Texans are alike ;-) From: Efren Leonida Sent: Monday, March 16, 2009 1:14 PM To: AGA Advisory Committee Subject: Re: [AGA-mcm] NEC write-up That sounds like a plan. A lead-in at the beginning of the article could mention Bailin/Erik as board members of the AGA and a little of what the AGA is about. It can even be an abbreviated version of the TAG article with pictures, with a "check out the full article in The Aquatic Gardener, the magazine of the Aquatic Gardener's Association, just one of the perks of being a member of your hobby's national organization!" Or something like that....... I only know online names, but Davemonkey (you may know him in the Dallas club) offered to write some stuff up. If you'd like to tie that in as well with a TAG article feel free to ask him, or I can ask him for you as well......

I did think of it, and recruited Bailin and Erik to write up parts of NEC. Karen usually does, or Scott, but Karen is writing another Thailand article for me (I hope) and Scott has to leave early to attend his daughter's piano recital. So let's coordinate our efforts here so that you can publish your article right away online and still leave some cool stuff for TAG to print, okay? Who is reviewing the Houston plantfest?

We're trying to have articles reviewing the "big events" for the planted aquarium hobby to help promote the hobby. Jason Baliban was gracious enough to lend us his excellent review of the AGA Convention to use on our site: http://www.projectaquarium.com/plantedAquariumArticles_AGAConvention2008.aspx We have some members going to the Houston Plant Fest April 9-11 to review that event. I'd like to put a review on the NEC coming up as well. Is anyone going to the NEC willing to do a review and take lots of pictures? We'd link to the AGA in the article and mention the AGA's involvement in promoting planted aquaria at the event.
