[Thursday] Steam up wrap up

[Timothy Straw]

I too am quite pleased that things went so well. One thing we have already
discussed is changing the date. The steam and air tables were sparsely
populated this year, in part due some exhibitors doing Kent instead of us.
It was also the Sound Lab reunion In New London some folks went there
instead. I worked there for 23 years and wished I could be at the luncheon.
