I've only missed one (west coast) VCF. Sellam did a hell of a job again this
year. I'm sure I'll have time in the next 12 months to get an exhibit
together for next year. (I say that every year.)
Regarding names, I keep on half expecting Sellam start his VCF presentation
with "Call me Ishmael" or "Call me Sam". (Both are from opening lines
of
good books, one famous, one less so.) If I had his name, I couldn't resist
the joke. Unfortunately, no one would laugh at "Call me Eric." Until they
looked at me, that is.
Eric
