>Hmm, so those of us up 'north' get punished if we cannot attend, huh? You >won't even make those blank tapes available to us?
You're right, Jane. Wm Burroughs used to run a reel to reel recorder without an input hooked up to it, and then listen to the 'blank' tape for voices. He says there were plenty that were captured, but I don't remember him ever discussing anything that they had to say. It w.b. curious to listen to the blank bd conference tapes one day... Otherwise, I think that if Hugh Lovel can drive all night to come to the conference, if Hugh Courtney will leave all of his work to speak at the conference, if Mark Shepard will abandon his important work to share at the conference, if Elaine Ingham and James DeMeo will fly across country to teach us more about soil and Forces, well, I just don't want to be responsible for encouraging anyone who can get here without walking across water from coming and sharing their accomplishments, their interests and their dreams with the rest of us. Damn me if I'm the one encouraging people to partake of the BD community via television!! We're getting our bread from the Kimberton bakery this year. I'm very excited about this! Can someone recommend a good source of BD/organic CHEESE in quantity that can be UPS'd to Virginia before next Friday? You, Jane, have a special invitation to attend one of these conferences. There is really no excuse not to come this year. Maybe SS will drive by and pick you up on his way down. -Allan
