marylou Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I had a hard time getting to SLC with the security thing messing up Sea-Tac as it did, but finally made it down there. Â Anyone see anything interesting? I saw Crackers, he and I went to a party and dinner. I saw Murray, but we were running off in different directions. Thinker and I had b'fast and then he took me to the airport today. Thanks, always good to see you, Thinker. Â Good weekend,wish I'd had more time to look around. The airport thing on Thurday caused me to miss seven meetings that first day, and it was tough to make that up. People missed meetings right and left due to some rearranging of booths, the new immense size of the Salt Palace, and a vexing new booth numbering system. Â Good: lots of companies getting more green technologies going and the use of recycled materials are way up. Â Bad: lots of new innovations from the last couple of seasons being rehashed, mostly to unimpressive results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlympicMtnBoy Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Hey Crackers, post up some prototype pics so we can drool and comment or poke fun at them. Also did you ever get that upgrade kit together for the worksacks? I really need a webbing hipbelt I can wear my harness with. I made one that worked but I lost part of the buckle on the top of Mt. Stuart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olyclimber Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I hope they improve the anodizing on the newly designed ti sporks, and add my favorite color aqua marine. also, it would help if they drilled out the handle to reduce weight. Hopefully companies have recieved my letters and heeded my advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
