Just dragged myself away from this year's convention, and what a week!
I'd like to record my thanks to Frank and Shirley Nix and their many
other helpers from Southern California AMICA for their Herculean
efforts, and I'm sure than all the other MMDers who were there will
concur.  All this work just so we all have the chance to meet folks
from 'round the world, to put a face to those emails -- and it's
a great excuse for those of us from darkest Europe to experience the
parallel universe that's L.A.
