Whoa there! I bet they'd all love more unsolicited mail in their inbox ;-)

This idea makes me smile some. A true man of principle - there are so few.
While buckets of folks have been posturing like crazy about this, I have doubted
their principles would survive their first desire to go back there. Top marks

Officer thinking. Unfortunately it predicts 18 visitors to a similar fest in
Australia. We might need some more analysis of other factors in order to
improve our prospects (or face the concept of 18 visitors).

Another thought (and one in keeping with our Privacy and Anti-spam legislation)
might be to create a page where folks can register their interest and offer

I'd be happy to carry the link fairly prominently on the Port Block sites...
