 Hello List, I have a question and a concern regarding the ICPS
 World conference in June of 2000. Why is this limited to only 200
 participants? I know the Fort Mason can hold more people than
 that. Unlike other shows,conferences, be it orchid,garden,etc.
 this show is excluding the public from attending. I am very sorry
 to have learned this,as I was very excited to find such a rare
 event happening in our own back yard. I understand orchid shows
 and conferences are more diverse than CP shows(hopefully not for
 long),but when you limit an event to only a few,no sales,except for
 trading amongst the few,then where are the
 children,parents,teachers,and all the rest of the thousands that
 are interested in these plants supposed to go? If it is a World
 Conference,then let it be just that and not a City Block
 Conference. Sincerely, Don Elkins
