The original joke I made that started all
this was to have a PRIVATE fund set up by attendees, not that the festmeisters
or NASWA make an official invitation and pay the transportation. If
someone, other than the official sponsors, wants to get together with
others to buy the tickets, pay the attendence fee, and/or play the
hotel bill for someone as THEIR guest at the next fest they should be
able to. So if anyone wants to set up an invitation fund for Glen
Hauser, Arnie Coro, J.Fred Muggs, or whomever, then set up a website or
e-mail address and invite people through a ONE TIME post here to get the ball
rolling
For those who do not know, the standard
policy at the fest is that if someone makes a proposal for a presentation
and their idea IS approved by the John & Rich counsel of elders, then
only the fest fee is waved, the guest still pays his own way for everything
else. I don't know if this policy also holds for the banquet
speaker. If your guest accepts YOUR invitation and wants to make a
presentation or speak, then he can make is proposal to the bosses and
take his chances at rejection like everyone else.
