WOW!  I feel less guilty.  I   always believe in "member
friendly".  I registered today and the the person ("just helping
out") who took my info didn't say the deadline had been extended
and I didn't want to say "what about registering late?"

Now with another $60 I think I will book two more nights at the
convention hotel.

Now if the powers that be could just see fit to sell one day, two
day , three day enrollements, and the tons of extra money raised
from that  be applied to discount the full registeration.

If the exhibitors agreed it would be great to see afternoon passes
or one certain afternoon pass  to the exhibit hall offered for a
fee to the public or members of "allied trades"  like piano sales
persons, music store owners, piano teachers, their students with
their parents, highschool band instructors, college music
departments, and your good all American piano affectionado.   RPTs
could give guided tours.  I am sure there are many people in
Dallas who might be very intersted to see exhibits such as Charles
Walter, Franderich, Overs, Wapin, and those that offer accerrories
like piano covers, piano benches, refinishing,  rebuilding, music
racks etc etc.  ----rm
