I feel compelled to point out that the SWLfest is not a spectator event. It's only as good as all of us participants make it, by soliciting and facilitating new speakers who we think our fellow 'festers would appreciate, by bringing new exhibitors, and by creating new attractions such as film screenings. It's not as difficult as you might think, and the SWLfest organizers will gladly and appreciatively work with you. They do an awful lot to make the SWLfest happen, but they can't do everything. It's up to all of us to make the SWLfest better.

While haven't attended in sveral years, I have been noting the program/forum schedules. I must share with you my reasons for again not being in attendance. The offerings are getting a bit stale and tired with the registration fee rising to a discouraging level.

Perhaps if you expanded the concept of the 'fest to include topics of interest to those of who now listen to international broadcast that are streamed on the 'net, I might in the future consider again attending.

I also might add that I was on several occasions treated in a less than friendly manner by one of the 'fest organizers from "Academia". This too has discouraged my attendance.
