Hello, Charlie - Sorry you didn't hang around longer -- you obviously arrived at a particularly hectic time, what with everyone lined up for the pizza lunch.
I was standing in the hallway, holding the door open, and would have been happy to register you on the spot (although lunch would not have been available -- the hotel needs the head counts for meals as of Friday 12 noon. The registration desk was in the hotel's ballroom that was along the hallway just past where people were queued. We had a full slate of afternoon activities, and we kept to the schedule that was posted at both the Fest website and at the Fest blog. The after-lunch forum began promptly at 1245. Next time, ask for John or myself, or simply ask around to people with name badges regarding how to register, where stuff is held, etc. While things can be intimidating to a first-time visitor, we try very hard to create a friendly environment where those new to the Fest can quickly understand what happens & how. Hope you enjoyed your brief visit with us in any event; the Radio Azteca interval signal (I believe it's the opening "fanfare" to Rocky & Bullwinkle cartoons) is one of my favorites. See you next year - Richard Cuff Co-chair, Winter SWL Fest ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Charles Zalenski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Mar 11, 2007 11:48 AM Subject: SWL Fest To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, I arrived Saturday close to noon. Everyone was lined up in the hallway for lunch. Didn't find a registration desk. Talked to a couple of people and they said things should get started again in a couple of hours. Went back out to my car and listened to Radio Azteca on 650 Khz for a while. Then decided to leave....
