The collection more than covered my expenses. In fact, people were so generous it will also cover a good part of a year's worth of web hosting for TexasCHLforum.
llwatson, you can't believe everything TraCoun tells you! Just because I talk to Houston Approach on the way in from Dallas doesn't mean I'm driving too fast.
Thanks again folks,
Chas.

Just for the record ....
Since the first time I went to the TSRA annual meeting with Charles, I have been able to say "I've flown with Charles Cotton."Charles L.

BTW, there used to be a show for kids on public television, featuring a lot of puppets and the like. Because of the similarity in color, I've adopted the name of one of the regular 'characters' as my nickname for Charles' 'Vette. There is one difference, however, the one in the TV show did NOT fly (that I know of)

I would have added (to Houston approach) "Is that an SR-71 you're driving?
Thanx,

Glad you all enjoyed it, sorry I missed it.
Could anyone post a recap/summary for us poor souls that could not make it?
I am starting a new job and not sure, yet, if I could get to PSC on a Friday night in time to hear an encore presentation.

I wish I could think of a way to do it, but it's just not possible to post a summary. Too much of the seminar consists of discussion of the statutes and answering questions. I don't have a script, I just use a PowerPoint presentation with key points and statutes. It wouldn't mean anything, and could even be misleading, without the discussion and the opportunity to ask questions.switch wrote:Could anyone post a recap/summary for us poor souls that could not make it?
