Hi, Everyone! I just want to make it clear that I am not one of the ones Barbara mentioned in her post below as being disappointed in the turnout at the convention. I came with only two goals in mind; to meet other CH'ers, and to talk about what we can do. It was absofuckinglutely wonderful, as we learned to say at the convention. There were friends from Austrailia, from Italy, from England, from Canada, from California, and from New York, as well as from the good old USA. ;-) It was, for me, an uplifting experience to be around and share with even 30 other people willing to travel and put themselves out to be with other CH'ers; friends on sight to be sure.
Bob P was worried we would be disappointed. No way, Bob. The people who didn't come missed out; and I am sorry for those who couldn't make it due to finances or because they couldn't get off work, etc. Start planning now for next year, all you clusterheads. This is one experience you don't want to miss.
