Yes dozens and dozens of cheers. Although I'm sure what they would have preferred instead of cheers was that the people that sounded so "hot to trot" about the rally several months ago would have come through a little better when it counted. It's amazing how many people lost interest when it became clear that - shockingly - it was actually going to happen! I had business trips and things come up and I moved them around so I could be at the rally. Maybe others don't have that luxury but I have to wonder.
If it ever gets started and people try this again I hope that people won't just give the idea a hearty hurrah unless they plan to COMMIT to going right then and there.
WD and WDO you are too cool but unfortunately learned a tough lesson - talk is cheap! Bravo for making the best possible effort.
