Re: [AGA-sc] convention?
I just talked to Ricky, he is going to check with Doug at Seachem about the
possibility of us doing something at the Seachem labs. He is also going to see
if he has any ideas on hotels. I told Ricky if we can't do it this year then
maybe we will start planning on 2008 in Atlanta. He is at a trade show in
Orlando. Greg is out of pocket because he is moving (How ironic:-)). I will
report back after Ricky calls me back.
Still no word from the Marriott here in DFW either.....
Regards,
Larry

Yea, that is what I am thinking but I could be convinced to do otherwise. The
only significance of May is that I am booked through April15 because of tax
season and then I leave on April24-May 2 for a collecting trip in Honduras.
That means I can't get to Atlanta until May.
Maybe Ricky could do it I don't really know. I can't find his phone number to
call him. Wait I just found it, I will call him in a few minutes......

Then does it make sense to plan for Dallas this year, and then in May look
at sites in Atlanta for next year? (I'm not sure I know the significance of
May... is that when you have a business trip scheduled there?)
What about Ricky? How often does he go to Atlanta? Could he scout a site
when he's there on Seachem business?
