Default Net54 Friday night dinner

Just wanted to give a big, hearty thanks to Leon for the wonderful Net54 dinner he put on at the National on Friday night--enjoyed it immensely! Interesting speakers and a chance to meet and talk to fellow board members you've never met. An experience I highly recommend.

Highest regards,

Larry

It was a great time and I look forward to the next one. Thanks again to Leon and all the sponsors/speakers that night. I met some great people some new to me some I have been in contact with for years and never met.

Below are the only two pictures I took: Brian Drent from Mile High, talking about his recent big find of unopened material, and some of the pizza that was served. I got to talk to quite a few people, including some I've corresponded with, but I wish I had been able to meet more. Jason, I would have liked to say hi to you, but I missed you. I think I missed a lot of the people who came later, after dinner when the speakers were talking.

It was indeed a great event. The speakers were interesting, the food was great and the drinks were flowing.

Can anyone provide a "cliffnotes" version of what he spoke about?
