Subject: Chuck Peddle @ VCF East

Hello Commodore friends ... Just wanted to let you three know that
Chuck Peddle confirmed his VCF East 4.0 attendance today.  The event will be
Saturday, June 9, at our computer museum [http://www.infoage.org] here
in New Jersey.  We may add Sunday, June 10 as well, but the Commodore
panel (30th anniversary of the Pet) will be Saturday starting at 10:30AM.
Our location is about one hour south of Newark Liberty airport and about 90
minutes northeast of Philadelphia airport.  We'll announce a show hotel
when the date gets closer.

Just received a message from Bil Herd.  He wrote that he wants to see what he "can drag along in the way of hardware...".

                               Maybe like rare CBM hardware?!!!

Robert,

Can you please confirm whether or not Chuck Peddle will be in attendance in New Jersey or if he will only be appearing via video conference?  If it's only by video conference, when did this change take place?  I've spent a lot of effort organizing my trip to NJ this weekend and was dying to get my copy of Over the Edge signed by Peddle, Haynie and Herd.  Two out of three ain't bad, but I was looking forward to shaking Chuck's hand and thanking him for everything he's done.

According to Evan Koblentz of the VCF East, Chuck will now just video-conference into the show.

If it's only by video conference, when did this change take place?

Evan K. says that Chuck had work committments in Sri Lanka.  Any further questions should go to Evan K.; I'm just an attendee.

I've spent a lot of effort organizing my trip to NJ this weekend...

Me, too... and others have spent much time, too.

...and was dying to get my copy of Over the Edge signed by Peddle, Haynie and Herd.  Two out of three ain't bad...

3 out of 4... Bil Herd, Dave Haynie, and Bob Russell.

Awesome, welcome aboard Bil, or is it the other way around?  (need to look up proper etiquettes when a new(er) member is actually one of the people responsible for the reason of being of this place ;-).

Nice to have you here Bil :-).
