Yes, it's a nice fundraiser, but it really eats up time at the end of the meeting. Steev's talk wasn't particularly long (it was actually the Q&A that pulled it much over an hour), but when coupled with the auction afterwards... I suggest limiting the number of items if it continues to get out of hand, or specifically dedicating a larger portion of the September or October meeting to an auction where you can use 'the system'. - Erik -- Erik Olson erik at thekrib dot com _______________________________________________ GSAS-board mailing list GSAS-board@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/gsas-board
