Michael, it was a pleasure spending time with you again this year,
and I'm sorry to hear about your bag with radios being lost in
Germany (temporarily, I hope!) What an unlikely turn of
events. There's probably a song in this story somewhere. Please
know that people are with you in spirit. Let us know how you make out.
Cheers,
-Ed Cummings

First I want to say it was great to be back at the Winterfest, and
an honor to spend time with all of you. Camaraderie beyond compare.
Y'all know what I mean. I won't say much more. Thank you. That last
session of shortwave memories was really something.
Now the downside, at least for now. I already posted something about
his on facebook, where I guess I don't wanna say much more about it
there. But through a strange and unexpected turn of events at the
end of a bus out of Philadelphia, my bag is now in Germany, and I
have a very similar looking bag full of a stranger's sweaters and
Doritos and cookies, and my grand prize from the raffle and a number
of important items of mine ended up with somebody leaving the country.
The woman who bought the ticket for this German traveler has assured
me that my suitcase will be shipped back to me as soon as possible.
I hope that's true. But these are strangers, and this is a strange
situation. At this point, I don't know what to expect. Whatever
happens, I will post on this list and let you all know.
Meanwhile, thanks for the memories of this weekend. I'll say this -
Rich, and John, all of you, even if I've lost my prize, along with
my prized GE portable that was in that bag, and everything else,
this last weekend will remain a prized moment in time for me,
despite all that. Still, I'm sad (Remember the Yardbirds?), and
frankly stressed. But again thank you, for the good times.
