Go the opposite direction -- it would only be an hour.

And I went to a $1200 "group training" session once. I ended up teaching the instructor.


I too have been to that kind of training.  I feel for the guy who is up there flustered and lost.  I quit using Autodesk's canned demos b/c half the time they didn't work anyway.

I was in one of those too. I also ended up teaching the teacher and later, he offered me a job. I didn't take it. I had people during break asking me questions.

--------------------------------------------------------

For those who don't know, Peter is one of the guys who teaches at AU. I feel that he has a great deal of knowledge in what he is offering to teach and I believe Stig can vouche for the guy too.

Peter, I know it would be pretty tough to get some of the Swamp's big guns to help you, like Stig, but if you look around a little bit, MP (Michael Puckett) is one heavy hitter.

Just a thought.

I was considering asking Stig, but Denmark is a little far for a weekend seminar.

I sent an email to a couple friends of mine: Bill Kramer and John Gibb, maybe I can get some other "big guns" that would attract the programmers.

In order to make this work I would want to get at least 4 presenters, I was thinking of Bob Bell too, but I haven't contacted him yet either.

So far I have only heard of ~10 people who are definitely interested. I would need at least 20 to contract the speakers.

What'd you mean Denmark is far away? It's only a 16 hour ride!  Oh yeah, and a $500 ride, too :D

Thanks for the consideration, Peter. It would indeed be a grand company to be placed amongst.

Well it seems that this seminar (mini conference) might actually become a reality. I have been given the nod from the school to use the labs and have had two potential lectures give the tenative ok.

I think this is going to be really cool. Maybe I can get stig to TA?

Would you consider coming Stig?

We might be able to help with the travel (if we get enough participants).

Thank you for asking, Peter. Appreciate it very much. August is usually a busy month here, so I doubt the time and of course the finances will allow it.

Thanks again, though.

Quote from: Dictionary.com
cheap skate

A stingy person, as in He's a real cheap skate when it comes to tipping. This idiom combines cheap (for "penurious") with the slang usage of skate for a contemptible or low individual. It has largely replaced the earlier cheap John. [Slang; late 1800s]
