Well, I'm here, unless I get Face-Hooed or something. That should give you some 
idea of the tolerance level of this group.

   Hi Andre --
 
   Not only that, but you should have the layout up and running for the 
 convention so we can tour it!
 
   Have fun!

Now how 'bout that?  I was born there, watched many 'a train there,

I take these as Divine Signs that I should do my best to attend the 
2015 Convention in Kansas City.

Thanks for the welcome, Gary!

I'm sure the NASG is feeling honored to have me.  :-)

You got it Andre. I make a few people happy when I arrive, but a whole lot more 
are happier when I leave! Also, I'm not running any Baldwins, yet, anyway.
