I will be on vacation from 10/13 to 10/20 in Italy. This is the first time I'll NOT be taking a laptop on vacation, so I'll be out of touch for that period...unless I find an Internet cafe in the area.

During the work week, I'll have someone watching for new Discussion Board account requests, but expect a day or two delay on getting your account confirmation. If you need a sysop's attention on the weekend...sorry, you'll have to wait until Monday for help.

BTW, if there are any ICW members from Italy who want to meet up, drop me an email. Even if we can't meet up, maybe you'll have some suggestions for good eating and music. I'll be flying into Rome and immediately driving to Tuscany for several days. Then we're heading back to Rome for parts of two days, before leaving.

Thanks,
JohnS

John, enjoy Italy and see if they have any cool guitar or mandolin shops you can report on.

Oh yes, and the few other historical places of interest!

Bon Voyage!

Artfield: Thanks for the recommendations! I'm sure I'll have a great time.

Freak: Let's see, which should I see first: the Coliseum or the Rome Guitar Center? Let me consult my wife on that? :-)

The countdown is on. Go to bed, get up, go to the airport...wake up in Italy!

I hooked up with Petruz and although we won't be able to meet up in Rome, he did give me lots of pointers to stuff to do, places for music and even some music stores.

Thanks, Petruz!

Johns: Postings from late Friday & early Saturday have disappeared. Not sure if it's all or just some postings. Not sure if there's a potential serious problem. Just letting you know....
