While I'm honored that you would like a copy of my Powerpoint, I afraid it wouldn't do you much good as there are no words to it. It really was just a slideshow of pictures that highlighted the stories I was telling. I posted the image of my first slide on BoothieBarn if that helps.

To be honest, I received a lot of encouragement on Saturday to write a book about Booth at Garretts. It was an idea I always had in the back of my mind, but I never knew if it would be something that would interest anyone else. With the wonderful support I was given this weekend, I'm going to do my best to make a book a reality.

So while I can't give you a copy of my speech now, hopefully in a few years I could have a book for you! We'll see.

I certainly understand your reasons for not wanting to record the lectures and did not mean to imply otherwise. My profound apologies if it sounded so.

I only meant to suggest that Dave, who is a regular poster here, may be so kind as to favor us with his lecture. I would be more than happy to pay him for it as we'll if that were an option.

Suffice it to say that I will most certainly not miss the conference next year. It just seems a shame for such great historical information to not be preserved for the future. Perhaps you could not offer it for sale until months after the conference to encourage attendance? Just a thought.

I am looking forward to 4/20 (insert joke here) and hope I will be able to meet you then.

Quote:Betty, What great pictures. I especially liked the pictures of court room. I would have loved to say I was there. Reading all the posts today I would say that the conference was a total success and fun for all. I really hope to be able go next year. I also wanted to tell you that I finished your book on Paine. What a great book! Your reseach on Lewis must have been exhausting. I cannot wait to get my hands on your second book on Lewis. A job well done! Thank you. Gary

Thank you, Laurie, Betty, Tom, Blaine, John (Jeff), Barry, Jim, and all my new friends.

It was such an honor, and such a grand time.

The only downside is -- in the midst of all that I'm doing -- needing to write and produce something relevant enough to come and speak again!

And thank goodness for this forum, where I can stay in touch with you truly wonderful folks, your hearts and minds.

Erik: I believe everyone greatly enjoyed your presentation. It's great for us to have the opportunity to see what's involved in putting together a beautiful production such as "Killing Lincoln" We all have a much greater appreciation of the work.
