It was the best Cinevent in years. A few dealers were absent but by and large, 
most of the dealers were there, and there were plenty of great things to buy. I 
extended my Valentino collection, thanks to Morrie, with a card from Beyond The 
Rocks that I had never seen before.  Some of the dealers, who booked late, were 
unhappy with the tables they received outside of the main room but that's life. 
I think having only two dealer floors that were easily accessible to each other 
i.e. Floors 2 and 3 made it easy to navigate the Convention. I was impressed to 
see that there were actually some people in their twenties roaming the dealer 
rooms, something I've never seen before in previous conventions. Also, the 
dealer rooms seemed to have steady traffic throughout, given that the auction 
was not taking place this year. 

It a pleasure to be in this  great hotel. The rooms were fantastic and you 
could actually eat lunch in the hotel restaurant without getting sick. The 
roof-top pool provided a nice break during the day, and there were multiple 
restaurants within walking distance. Far better than that sh*t hole Ramada 
hotel, which was mercifully condemned.  
I hope Cinevent keeps this up.

 Rich, 
In all honesty, alcohol aside, from your 'review' of Cinevent it does not
appear that it was all that great....unfortunately....

quantities by some
