Well, it might be that it was cheaper than lugging and storing. All for
times gone by, buttoned down minds and pinheads drive me to distraction.
Lost funding for SHARE long time ago, haven't been back since early
nineties. Was ISPF project chair in early eighties and again lost
funding. Semi-retired now and don't travel much at all.
If you see Sam Knutson he's got a couple hundred ibm-main peel-off
labels for virtual and real easels-won't cost a thing.

At least outside Chicago you don't have to hire a union stevedore to
haul it from your car to the exhibition hall, and a union carpenter to
stand it up, and a union printer to hang the sign on it, etc., all at
2-hour minimums. Oh, and don't forget the union electrician that has to
plug in your extension cord, and your laptop's power supply, and the
union carpenter that has to come back to insert any hooks into your
pegboard display panel. Location has a LOT to do with costs and I'm sure
that SHARE would like to keep costs to a minimum level.
(All those union tradesmen cost a minimum of $34 per hour, for 2 to 4
hour minimums.)
Sarcasm intended!!!
