> Well, since you were the only one to propose a date, June 23rd it is.
>
> ATTENTION ALL ACCESSD MEMBERS, on the weekend of June 23rd, Mark Matte and 
> I
> will be having an AccessD conference at my house in Hudson, NC.  Anyone
> interested in attending should speak up so that I know how many to plan 
> for.
>
>
> Anyone who wishes to make a presentation please say so, so that I can make 
> a
> schedule.  Individual presentations should be 45 minutes to 1 hour.  If 
> you
> have a topic that will take longer, no problem, simply break it down into 
> 1
> hour segments.  If you have something really cool that will only take a 
> few
> minutes, again no problem.  The agenda will be sessions from 9am to noon,
> 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm on Saturday.  I can and will provide enough material to
> fill up that time should there be no takers on presentations, but in the
> interests of YOUR sanity, consider doing a session on your own subject of
> expertise.  If there is enough content, we can spill over into Sunday, 1/2
> day or a full day, your choice.  If there is HUGE attendance and resulting
> HUGE content then we can spill over to either weekday on either side of 
> the
> weekend.
>
> Remember, all I do all day is blow bubbles and poke at Charlotte with a
> stick, so I am flexible.
>
> If the number of attendees is small enough, it will be held in my dark 
> (but
> dry) basement (I have lights, and a few windows, but it is an unfinished
> basement).  If attendance is really small, we will meet in my office
> upstairs.
>
> As for the most important issue... I have a largish propane BBQ and will
> provide a BBQ dinner on Saturday the 23rd.  Donations accepted but never
> required.  The menu will be Boneless, Skinless chicken breasts a la Sam's
> club, a rack of ribs (more if a large turnout), Corn on the cob, sweet
> potatoes, potato salad and green salad, and whatever I can rustle up for
> desert.  If anyone wants to bring or fix something special of their own,
> feel free.
>
> There was a lot of interest for a date in September.  I will do a repeat
> performance in September if there is still interest.  Someone propose a 
> date
> for September.
