First, if Wim is truly going to be the "featured speaker" then I will pass - because I really would - not - like to listen to more crap that he spews forth. Secondly, he - can't - possibly have anything to say that the other tuners would want to listen to. Thirdly, if he - is - the featured speaker, I pity and feel sorry for all the other tuners in attendance. Wim, you just really don't know the "bad taste" in everyone's mouths you left behind. Especially the ones you worked with. AND - THERE IS NO "K" IN MY NAME ANYWHERE !!!!!!
