Can we have an East Coast live conference video link?

Wendy,
I've passed your proposal on to the PTMTA. It may be that something can be offered as a live video, that would be very cool!
I don't know if you were serious, or not, but we'll see if anything comes of it...

Very nice job, Michael- thank you!
As for the video link question, that would best be addressed to Brion; contact info at briontoss.com
