Damon - I'm most certainly keeping track of the "DUH !!!" pledges and I'm delighted to add yours to the list! For those of you who don't understand why Damon would offer to give me money... It's not for me - it's a contribution to a non-profit organization that's close to R:BASE Technologies' heart, Project Bundle-Up, http://www.wepasa.org/bundleup/bundleup.html. This year, on Project Bundle-Up raised over $150,000 with all donations managed in R:BASE. At the conference last year, any time someone heard a new idea, or saw the light on something amazing that R:BASE could do, they contributed 25 cents to the "kitty". Other contributions were required any time someone mentioned: 1. Any political opinions whatsoever (it was especially difficult last year, right before the elections!) 2. Any database program that competes with R:BASE 3. Any talk about religion 4. Any talk about any international "hot-spots" (the Mid-East, Ireland, etc.) 5. Any "classified ad" - yes you can purchase time at the podium to promote your R:BASE projects, or to request help on a specific project Or you could just make a donation to a great cause. At the end of the conference, we had taken in about $250.00 - which Razzak and RBTI matched for an impressive donation to Project Bundle-Up. So, this year, we've already started taking donations, as Damon mentioned. But this year, with a female emcee (me!), we're adding a NEW event that will require a donation - Anything sports-related. That's right, gentlemen. Any athletic analogy. Any discussion of whatever sport is happening in October. Any mention of the third shot on the 14th hole at the first RBTI golf tournament. That's right - I'm expecting to take in BIG BUCKS this year! It makes for a great time and a great cause. And if you haven't already registered for the conference - DO SO NOW! http://www.rbase2000.com/conference/ Sami ----------------------------------------------------------- Sami Aaron Software Management Specialists 13214 W. 62nd Terr, #139 Shawnee KS 66216 913-915-1971 http://www.softwaremgmt.com At the end of the con ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, August 03, 2001 3:50 PM Subject: RE: Report lookup fails > Sami, a call from Razzak to fix that is worth a BIG $6.55 (for RBase 6.5++) > to the kitty for the Conference.
