I'm not really sure how that would come about, Orly. The goal in such a meeting for me is to establish to Mr. Axmark the existence of our group and its willingness to work with him should it be for the benefit of both parties.
I have no intention of admiring him nor am I seeking his admiration. I've never even heard of him till now :) (although of course, I've since googled him and learned a lot more). Anyway, this is just one of the reasons why we need to meet and discuss such things. Orgs like PLUG need to work with others orgs all over the world, and people like Mr. Axmark help to make those things happen.
