So what you are saying is that if we cant come to this particular event, you want no input, no comments on what (you hope) will become an annual "LPIN Gathering" event?
BULLSHIT. I think I (and many other long time mongers) who have paid our dues in many ways have the right to put our two cents in, and express our opinion. While I have no doubt that you will ignore anything I say, I'm gonna say it anyway, unless banned by the owner of this site.
