Hi Jon, You probably remember me joking that NAMES should simply buy the Pontiac Silverdome and use it for the show....
I was in Detroit yesterday and today. On the evening news it was announced that the Silverdome was sold at Auction - for $580,000. Yes that is right 580 thousand $. It was built in 1975 for 55 million $. How is that for property depreciation! Yikes! If every NAMES attendee kicked in $100 we probably could have bought the Silverdome! ;-) Dave Jon Elson wrote: > Steve Stallings wrote: > >> Dale, >> >> PMDX would certainly be interested in coordinating booths >> with any EMC related presence at NAMES.
