Re: [AGA-sc] Luis

["S. Hieber" <shieber@yahoo.com>]

Well, that's the part I wasn't clear about. Why was Ricky paying for himself if 
what he meant to do was pay for Luis? Anyway, if the question is merely, can 
there be a second speaker without free reg, banq or roomnights, that's a no 
brainer.
 
If the question is add another speaker to a short peresentation and give 
another set of speaker comps, then that's not two for for one , , , 
 
Well, I'm not clear which it is you're asking about.

Important to note that Ricky is offering to pay for himself. Basically, 
we are getting another two for the price of one deal. We're not talking 
about a set of comps.
