Re: Seeing where the other GT was not so good....
Maybe this is just a whacked idea on my part, but maybe you guys should start simple. Plan to get together over dinner someplace where you can all bring your flashlights and do a show-and-tell. It would be indoors, with good food to eat, and great companionship with your fellow flashaholics. If you get even three people together, it will be a success. And if it really takes off, that's a great bonus! Maybe during that dinner you could also discuss plans for a followup gathering. Anyway, just an idea.
I'll also mention that very tentatively, there will be a NJ PhotonFest 3 (PF3) sometime closer to spring, when the weather starts warming up. No date set yet, but I'll keep you posted. Needless to say, our NYC flashaholic friends are most definitely welcome! Don't make ufokillerz the only one to come out here. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
