Nothing wrong with questions, they usually raise points worth discussing.

This is a good idea. I have it blocked off on my calendar and since I
signed up with GATS, I consider myself committed.

Yes. The NELUG folks had a good plan where they partitioned their layout
off electronically assigning individuals sections. Based on reading their
reports, it worked well. Unless someone sees a problem with that, I think
we should do something similar.

We need to get going on this and I am the one who has dropped the ball. I
need to touch base with my friend Chris Suich who (a) has a suitable shop,
(b) has a son who is into LEGO trains, (c) has offered the use of his shop,
and (d) has expressed interest in participating in the show. I will say one
thing with respect to tables though - I really dislike the display boxes
that the Florida group uses and have no intention of building anything like
that.

I have no issue with non-LEGO decals. I will be looking for some Santa Fe
decals myself soon (if I can get my Santa Fe train project going).
