[Woodcarver] RoundUp and other digressions

[Sylda]

I did not attend the particular seminar you are speaking of, but have
attended others and feel just like you do.  Now that I have been taking part
in this list I am more anxious than ever to meet others on the list.  I've
been amazed and thrilled at the wonderful caring, sharing, generous,
helpfulness of the legends of our craft.  Thanks to all of you.  Please,
continue sharing your knowledge with us.
