Hi Everyone. I am crazy busy these days, and I'll donate a few hours every so often, but right now my life is nuts. I have work, school, buying (and repairing) a house, a girlfriend, teaching poi workshops, organizing the Alchemy conclave, trying to be an active member of the burner community.
I want to see this succeed, but I'm not sure how much I have left to put into it. I'll try to help the website get going, and I'll try to find out more about how to protect the organizers from liabilities, but I'm not going to have much time left for digging. I had a pretty busy weekend, and I had to take Monday off to give my brain a break, so life is interfering with what I have to do. I wish I had all the time in the world to dedicate, but I'm reaching my limits and need to consider my own health.
I'll be in touch, and I'll help when I can, but I'm not going to be as active as I'd like to be or as this event may need me to be. My apologies! I'll make extra effort to be available for the things I can do but no one else can (like some of the programming and possibly database stuff).

Re: Busy Pete
Tue, April 22, 2008 - 11:06 AMThanks Pete!
You've done a ton already, don't feel like you have to do more than you can! Some of what's important about this project is to see how an all-volunteer effort works, and how we can all support each other as we go.
I've also had a seriously busy weekend which was AWESOME, great folks to see and great experiences to have, but the last of the guest are trickling away tomorrow and I'll be back in the saddle by tonight!
The getting the website space alone was a huge blessing, and I know Christina is ready to do something with it if I'll simply send some text along! I'm about half done with that (gosh turns out it's kind of hard to explain what we're doing without it all being blah blah blah BORING!!)...
XXXOOO,

Tue, April 22, 2008 - 3:12 PMyep! and that is why I passed along the text writing, because we would have ended up with something akin to a mid-century British novel if I had written it. I am really looking forward to building this project and so thankful to have others to work with on it!
I have the week off so I am hoping to have the whole project completed by Sunday night, we'll see... but that is the goal! Also PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE if you have any images or art to donate DO! I would love to have even just raw "ugly" stuff to work with! Also I think it would be really neat if the site included a contributers page that promoted anyone that is a part of this project.

Thu, April 24, 2008 - 5:49 AMToo bad I'm not a worm. Then, I could just cut myself in half and have a 2-pete, or a 3-pete. -

Re: Busy Pete
Thu, April 24, 2008 - 6:07 AMAnd then you could cut THAT worm in half, and have a 3 Pete repeat!
Whew, can't be responsible for myself before I've had coffee...
I'm in process of sending most of the site text to Christina, please ANYONE ANYONE with some art, even if it's what you think if rough, or photos, or anything graphic or visual that you'd like to include on the site, please send it her way.
It's unlikely that we can get the site up before the end of the weekend due to some technical considerations still hanging out there (like needing a confirmation from the site in writing! HIPPIES!! Good thing I am one or they'd drive me nuts!)
I'm heading for Atlanta for the next couple days in a few hours, will be back on Saturday with all this as my primary mission, and especially to have ticket sales GO by the start of next week!
XXXOOO,
Me
