Bob,  I for one would be very interested in something like this in
the USA.  We have needed something like this here for quite some time.
It would be great to meet people and have someone to ask question of
and see things done in person.  Some things just can not be explained
in a book or web site, they must be seen and heard.  You have my vote
and I hope others will join in and respond.
