Thank you everyone for a wonderful experience. For me, the conference was summed up after it was over. Informally, Bob had everyone gather around and talked about the magazine and the forum. Three comments stood out.
Greg Grimes talked about how much it meant to him that over 100 peopled congratulated him on the birth of his son and how much that meant to him.
Cecil Baird talked about how he is on other forums that are very mean spirited and that this forum is one of the few that isn't.
Dave Willis nodded to Dr. Anderson and said that they thought that they had small pond management pretty well nailed down while Dr. Anderson was at Missouri. Now, he said that small pond management is bursting forth with new ideas due to this forum.
There were so many wonderful people at this conference but I want to single out one person. That is Bill Cody. You can't appreciate how funny and knowledgeable his is until you meet him in person.
Thank you again to everyone for contributing so much to this conference.
