<VV> Convention and VV

[Smitty]

Smitty Says:  Just got home from the convention last night.  No I'm not 
slow.  Just lots of "side trip" miles between here at the East coast and 
Denver.  Finally getting around to reading VVs and haven't found any huge 
rants about what a lousy convention it was.  I enjoyed it and It would 
appear that everyone else did.  One thing I was really disappointed it was 
the turn out for the VV meeting.  The numbers were way down.  I always like 
to go, just to connect faces to the names that appear on the forum through 
the year.  Just because you aren't as charming , popular, or important as I 
am doesn't mean I wouldn't want to meet you.  Come to the annual meeting 
next time.
Keeping my eyes open and reading name tags while strolling the parking lots 
and vendors spaces I was able to find quite a few "old timers" on my own to 
talk too.  Guys with experience who run their own shops and have experience 
in the "hands on" and make a buck part of the Corvair experience.  The kind 
of guys we really need for correct answers to questions.  Most of them said, 
No, I don't do VV anymore.  Too much nit picking and BS. 
How Sad
