I'd be happy to chip in $10 towards his reimbursement, even though I was never even there... -----Original Message----- From: der.hans [mailto:PLUGd@LuftHans.com] Sent: Thursday, November 16, 2000 1:32 PM To: quatsch Subject: ITEC cost moin, moin, due to a misunderstanding with how the ITEC stuff worked PLUG had to come up with the $70 for electricity on the spot for our booth during ITEC. Having juice helped our presentation. It allowed us to show off Linux, demonstrate a sponsor's (RNi) capabilities and let people sign up for the mailing list from the booth :). Robbie of Viking Systems dipped into his pocket to pay for it at the time, but he should get reimbursed. Viking Systems was already helping us out by giving most of their staff those two days off to work the booth as well as paying the printing costs on the flyers we had, buying us the cool banner that we'll have at next month's meeting and providing most of the equipment for the booth. We had another sponsor that was going to pony up with some cash to help PLUG out for ITEC and other things. We were planning on paying Robbie back from that, but unfortunately that sponsorship money hasn't materialized. So, the question is: Do we have a company out there that will provide us with the money to repay Robbie for the PLUG expense he fronted us? We, of course, can promise nothing in return except our public gratitude. ITEC was very successful for us. Events like this help us promote Linux as well as give us an opportunity to help our sponsors who provide us with all the SWAG Jim gets for givaways at the meetings. ciao, der.hans -- # der.hans@LuftHans.com home.pages.de/~lufthans/ www.Opnix.com # Magic is science unexplained. - der.hans ________________________________________________ See http://PLUG.phoenix.az.us/navigator-mail.shtml if your mail doesn't post to the list quickly and you use Netscape to write mail.
