RE: Talking in Seattle (fwd)

[Kathy Olson <kathy@thekrib.com>]

The talk he gave in Portland was a intro to So american cichlids talk,
both
dwarf and big guys which was awesome.  The history of the hobby sounds
great too, but then I would miss out on learning new stuff about So
American Cichlids.  Rather than have him do a little of everything I think
we should have him do one topic in detail!!

Wanted to put it up to the board.

        I'm due in San Jose early Friday June 11. Would like to see Lee
Newman up in Vancouver, so would probably fly in on Monday, do the meeting
Tuesday, fly up or drive back with Lee on Wednesady, then fly down on
Friday.  If Portland's meeting is before yours, then I could come up for
that - also could fly in earlier anyway before your meeting if you wanted.
Let me know I haven't yet booked flights but its probably easier for me to
do it this end  if that's OK.

Thanks for the Geos I'd love them, or some of them.

Let me know what you think. Also, what You'd like me to talk on - I do a
killer history of the hobby talk these days, but could do a general SA
cichlid or Geophagus or Pike talk if you wanted.
