  <And I was just trying to see who wanted to get together!>

  A get to gether would be a great thing but the idea of doing it has turned into a "beer wars" discussion that has over ridden any serious thought of a meeting.

  Only a few have made suggestions: on 2-9 Brent optted for KC ,also on 2-9 Frank said NM, 2-10 Mike R and Bob C mentrioned LV, 2-10 Steve Nervig voted LV, 2-11 Mike Beyersdoerfer mentione thqt in the summer LV is HOT! The beer messages vastly out numbered the responces regarding a meeting or even if there is any serious interest in such a meeting.

  My reply on 2-9 was to think about 2 things, a city with many things to do and sights to see, and for the area try any large city in TX,  NM, or Southern CO. These areas expecially TX are more central and could draw people from the So East, mid west, central and maybe even from the left coast. Then if  this SEC meeting could be made to coinside with a MBCA section event we would have a very large group of MB lovers to exchange ideas, experiences, tales of good and bad happenings, and generally get to know each other. Besides local section members will know where the good/best places to eat are and where good beer can be found for the beer lovers.  

  There were a few ideas presented about having regional meetings and then eventually a national one. Again no definitive responce. If anyone in the central and so western area wants to do a regional then the MBCA NM section, of which I am a member, is going to hold their anuall car show in Albuquerque at the Sheraton in June. This is just a  show and shine car show to show off their cars, no judgeing. The Sheraton sets aside a goodly portion of their parking lot and tapes it of just for this car show. I'd be more than happy to cooridinate such a happening between the NM section and the SEC peoples if any one is interested. Personally I'd much prefer a singel get to gether from people all over the country and make a big deal of it.

  So ends my ranting on this subject, lets see if anything develops form here or if it just dies a quiet death.
