Brad showed his usual flexibility and rearranged the schedule at the last minute, managing to add sessions on lighting and display (I could go without lunch a few more days, if it meant more stuff like that). There was a strong presence from the local glass guild (National Capitol Art Glass Guild) as well as folks from as far away as South Africa.
Tony Smith was marvelously organized as only an MIT engineer can be. Marty Kremer gave the scoop on shows and selling with panache. Patty Gray was combing madly (with new, chic, short hair -- but one wonders, was there one fire too many? nah.) Bert Weiss tried to burn down the hotel (not Patty's hair) with his torch - he claimed it was just a cutting demo not a demonstration for peace. And the list goes on & on! I only hope I can read my handwriting after taking all those notes
Thanks, Brad, and everyone.
