[Steve Ramm]

Just got home from DC. And have 500 NON-78 messages (PLus the 125 I deleted from 78-l<g>) It was great conference with 285 attendees. You'll hear more from others though not as detailed a report as Cary used to do. (BTW Cary wond rthe postion of Judge at Large for the ARSC Awards.)

 

I took photos and will share in next day ot so.

 

But here are the headlines - not in any special order:

 

1. Vinnie Pelote is new President Elect!

2. Tim Books is new Program Chair!

3 (Me? I'm Treasurer again - but then I ran unopposed.

4. The Lifetime Achievement Award went to Cristobal Diaz

4. The ARSC AWard for Distinguished  Service went to Ward Marston.

 5. The Biggest news - next conference is May 18 to 21st 2010 in NEW ORLEANS!!!

 

Other big items.... The First Sounds group presented and played a Phonautograph EVEN earlier than the history busting one played last year.

 

And Leah Biel's documentary was FABULOUS! And every one of you will want a copy. Mike will be offering them here when he gets back and catches up on all HIS lists!

 

Well, off to read my non 78-L mail.
