Hi!  I got back yesterday from the Far West Conference.  It was a trip and a half and I saw some very cool people, most notably Chauncey Bowers, Severin Brown, Britta La Shain, Dale LaDuke, and Shelby Tieg and Tara, all of whom you should track down and check out ASAP.  The best part of the event is the late night Guerilla showcases which take place in hotel rooms--lots of little performances going on simultaneously.  Very surreal and very cool.  I am eager to connect more with a lot of the people I met.  Big love to all of you and I will be back here again soon.
