Meeting Admiral Giddens was great!  Chris, your enthusiasm for the theme is
phenominal!  Great stuff!

Don't go reading into this but Felix--you're far to good looking to be in this
hobby... ;)

Again, sheer awe--I mean I've seen the mechas on-line, but to see them 'live and
in person'--wow!  And Eric, it was great speaking with you.  For a guy who makes
these spectacular creations known in the LEGO community around the world, you
were unassuming and very easy to talk with.

Had Strauss playing in my head, and picturing Schneider flicking that pen
away...  Fantastic MOCS!

Janey??  Isn't she from rtlToronto?  ;)  The micro stuff was inspiring, and
Janey's enthusiasm was contagious!  How she kept her energy up the entire
weekend I will never know but I would sure like to know where I can buy some ;)

Yes, Jim and Maelee were a joy to speak and hang out with--fantastic
representatives for the hobby!  Thanks for the chats!

Words fail in describing my appreciation of the efforts Christina put into this.

Joe, I don't think there was a time when I saw you that you weren't running
around taking care of something or other--fixing that or answering this, but you
always, no matter how big or small, no matter what time of day, did it with a
smile and laugh.  Wonderfully done!  Thanks Joe!
