Maybe at the other meets (e.g. MW or Pacific NW) but
the last few times not so much at VCFW. Last year I bought some stuff because Fred
specifically brought stuff for me.
I don't know about "legendary"; I'd reserve that for Sellam's early
events
which were more like a flea market plus exhibits. BUT, I was very pleased
with how consignment was managed last year. I was surprised at how
thoroughly the "FREE" table cleared.
great food
Yeah..... Not quite ;)
Well, it wasn't bad. Not great; but OK.
Much like Diogenes' favorite wine :-)
, and
incredible company/friends!
This now be true!
And how!
Honestly the exhibits are great, the CHM access is an
awesome bonus and
do what I do eat off site...
Unfortunately I will be missing it this year.
It's a maybe whether I can manage to get there this year.
But, I won't be able to take a carload of stuff.
p.s. Is this one of those thread jacking incidence you
were talking about? ;)
Well, announcement of Apple Ones is certain to bring about
arguments about
the machine. I think that one is well worth $666.66 but not what people
are paying for them.
This "thread jacking" continuous heading off on tangents is the basis of
Vannevar Bush's dislike of hierarchical organization of information, Ted
Nelson's "Hypertext", and Berners-Lee's WWW.
