It would be at my apartment near the 405 & 10 Freeways in Los Angeles. Here is the problem. I have had only person offer to present and I am not wise enough to carry the rest of the day. Is there interest? If not my feelings wont be hurt. Is it just a timing question?

JOE HECHT LOS ANGELES CA jmhla at earthlink.net From accessd at shaw.ca Sat Jul 10 13:46:24 2004 From: accessd at shaw.ca (Jim Lawrence (AccessD)) Date: Sat, 10 Jul 2004 11:46:24 -0700 Subject: [dba-conf] LA Conference In-Reply-To: <000001c46646$33a4f8d0$6501a8c0@delllaptop> Message-ID: Hi Joe: Thank you for all your efforts. I think many developers are still suffering from post 2000 shell-shock. Everyone is still a little shy to take time off, especially if they are contracting. There are not enough developers that have steady gigs and most of those are just a bunch sedentary old farts. If you decide to have a go at it again, send me an email and we will post a full page on our web site. Maybe then the event will show a higher profile. One other issue that could make the event more attractive would be to encourage but not expect the 'presentation' requirement, from those attending....but that would require an executive decision. A poll done, a while back, asked a random sampling of people, what was their greatest fear. Public speaking garnered almost 10 points more than death. Again, thanks for you work, so far and even I may be able to get away at a later time.
