Yes, I did judge the ADA contest, but that was over in mid-June. I was extra-careful to get done on time, and do a nice, complimentary commentary to go along with it this year.<g> But, no, I haven't heard anything else about his participation in the contest. This doesn't necessarily mean anything, though, because the subject just hasn't come up. I certainly HOPE the convention committee has been in touch with him, hopefully several times since then. I made the initial contact, got him to say, "Yes," and then turned him over to the committee. I cc'd them on the correspondence I had, so I know they know all that. Does AGA have letters of agreement they send out to speakers? If not, we probably should. If need be, I can probably get a copy of the letter NEC sends out to speakers. The letter thanks the speaker for agreeing to speak, deliniates what expenses will be covered by NEC, and what the speaker is expected to cover. It also asks for any special requests, such as a non-smoking room or a low floor in the hotel, food allergies, etc. Now wouldn't be a bad time to start if we're not doing it already.
