Wonderful meeting yesterday with Carly & Nancy. Now we have many, many phone calls, PMs and e-mails to send out.... :-)

I was feeling smug because I already put El Greko's name on my mini concert list back in late August, having a sneaky idea that it would be well worth it. But after I read all those requests, I thought I'd go back and review my correspondence with him about it. Haha, there was no correspondence because I forgot to talk to El Greko about it. Oh well. He is now signed up for a mini concert.

And, we're going to have "What I Learned from Rick Fielding." Lovely idea, Jeri.

We had to limit the number of mini concerts or there would be no participatory stuff, but it was SO hard to do! We could easily have had twice as many. If we missed you and you'd like to be considered for a mini next year, talk to the program chair as soon as you know you're coming.

Other stuff too numerous to mention, more later.
