OK, I'll go out on a limb and raise ya: Why not have it in NYC the same weekend as the Mermaid Parade http://www.coneyisland.com/mermaid.shtml Hell, the LUG could even have its own contingent in the parade. Since the pictures I shot of last year's parade http://tinyurl.com/2pzusx garnered so much interest from the LUG, we might as well build our convention around NYC's ultimate photo-opp. Jim Shulman Bryn Mawr, PA -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+jshul=comcast.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+jshul=comcast.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Jayanand Govindaraj Sent: Monday, March 03, 2008 11:15 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] LUG convention?
