Well, it's just over the horizon! Who's going? I arrive on the 29th, mid-afternoon. Should be a hoot!

I'll be there. Looking forward to meeting folks -- but how to recognize one another without an avatar? Perhaps we should all make masks of our Avatars and wear them Saturday for Halloween

You'll know it's me...I'll be the one with that looks like he's got a Halloween mask on. Actually, I have a collection of astro-related t-shirts, so that'll be a dead giveaway.

No offense but I think that's the best way to describe about 75% of the AIC audience Ok, maybe without the "good looking" part 
Like at GSSP for the group photo, the photographer at some point goes "you, the guy with the white beard, move a bit forward". Probably about 30% of the people thought he was talking to them LOL
I'm planning to go all three days. You won't recognize me because I'll be in disguise dressed as an amateur astrophotographer.
Ok, I'll print my avatar and glue it to my name tag. There ya go. I suggest you all do the same

Hi all you lucky folks!!! I wish I was attending with you all, but it won't happen this year. I do have a question though. Will there be any documentation or media available from this year's AIC? Are they going to video the conference to purchase a DVD later on, or have anything else available?
Thanks!

I'll be the guy with the Snap-on shirt.....maybe I'll wear some of the "bowling" shirts.....you know, the race shirts with all the patches......we had to wear them during conventions and such (ex Snap-on Salesman)....(I have a couple with bud or budweiser on them).
And yes, I'll be sporting a white goatee......we like to think of it as Snap-on Chrome not grey or white.

The presentations archive covers the years 2004-2008.
I doubt that they would stop doing this now.

Hi all,
I will arrive at 10:30am on friday; I'm missing some of the presentations, but it should be a kick in the pants, anyways.
I'll be waiting for the drawing on Sunday; all else is secondary lol.

Actually, I found the same one that is my avatar and just printed it out, so my "badge" is exactly the same as my avatar. I have a laminating machine at my shop so it'll look really official. But I like your idea better. Now if we can just get the whole CN gang to do it.

May I please ask a favor of you folks that are attending. ASA has the event listed on their website, so they may be there. They have developed an upgrade for the EQ6 mount with high resolution encoders on both axis, claiming "no autoguiding for 5 minutes or more". Can someone check this out (details, pricing) and report back their findings?
Thanks!
