Hmmm.... need to work on getting there.
The last time you guys were ranting and raving about someone it turned out to be the amazing Rockfish Guru from So Cal (whose name escapes me right now) who was / is extremely entertaining in his writing and presentations. I, however, blew it off ](*,) then after buying a couple of his books and hearing the reports of the presentation (I beleive it was Val then as well) I was sorry I missed it.

I have been subscribing to this series for a few years now, and it is fantastic! The presenters are almost always excellent, and at least 1 or 2 of the topics every year are focused on the Ocean, UW exploration, and various UW critters. Robert Ballard has been doing a lot of exploration of ancient shipwrecks in the Mediteranean for the last several years, so this should be a really good one.Burntchef wrote:check it out,

If you can still get tickets, I highly recommend it. NGLive is pretty much sold out every year, but they added as second session this year due to the high demand. The hall was about 95% full when I went on Sunday even though it overlapped with the Superbowl!

Milton Love was the man's name, and he's well worth the price of admission.Tom Nic wrote:

Who's going to this? I'm thinking of getting some tickets. I also noticed that if we organize a group of 10 or more there is significant savings on the ticket price, and the "organizer" receives a complimentary ticket which could offset the price just a bit more. Is anyone Definately planning on going?
I'll be there on the 25th, but I've already got tickets. Should be very interesting.Pez7378 wrote:Who's going to this? I'm thinking of getting some tickets.
