Emilia, I don't know how many signatures are already on it, but there are a lot!  

Mary, I know where it is and tried to mark it somehow with ipiccy but somehow wasn't able to do that!  

Jeanne and Ralph, there will always be next year!  It'll be in San Francisco in 2012 - another great city!

Elyse, you won't believe how many REALTORS from South Florida are here!

Kwee, me must have missed each other because I was there!  But so were many others, it got a bit crowded! 

William, next year it will be closer to you! Hope to meet you then!

Andrea, glad you enjoyed them.  Hope you are doing well!

Conrad, funny how you have that perception!  You should have seen the examples of the traditional homes!  :-)
