Merely That might be me, not sure from your description. I do speak frequently at conferences, including libertarian ones, and probably (to be frank) wouldn't be as good as some other listdenizens. I've got deadlines, and usually only have 1-3 hours to prepare for a presentation. Others might have more time to prepare, and better technical or mathematical knowledge. *shrug* But Tim, I *have* recommended that at least one conference organizer contact you for a paying gig, and I don't recall you taking it. :) -Declan
