Great report, Anthony!
Thanks for the many images and for identifying so many of the PuristS! I was fortunate enough to attend the Saturday evening Bay Area dinner, so had the opportunity to renew acquaintances with Peter and see the lovely new items in person.

Best,

Always an enjoyable group to get together with. Thanks to all those involved. Anthony, your pics came out fantastic given the lack of lighting there!
I also want to give a big thanks to Art for taking the time to write the text
for the report. The original report was gonng be much longer but then evils of technology got in the way. After Art spend 3+ hrs typing up the report and clicked on "send" to email it to me, he got some type of time-out error so he lost everything :( Spen...
