    1. FGS Conference - Day 2
    2. Linda Haas Davenport
    3. The USGenWeb Project luncheon today was a great success. There are several CCs here, but the majority of the people attended because they are visitors to the Project sites and wanted to learn more about us. Our keynote speaker did an excellent job discussing our 10 year history and used several sites as examples of what a visitor is apt to find on one of the Project sites. There were several people today who stopped by the booth asking how they can volunteer. I spoke with many researchers today and it seems as if everyone I spoke with had a story to tell about how a project website or a CC helped them knock down a brick wall. People asked me to "tell everyone thank you!" Tomorrow evening is the USGenWeb Panel discussion and if even half the people who said they will be there attend it will again be a full house. Ellen and I talked today and we'll be contacting some of the speakers to see if we can place their seminars on-line for those of you who are not able to attend. Many of the sessions are being recorded and I'll stop by the recording booth tomorrow to check on prices and availability of tapes for anyone who is interested. It has been a long busy day and it's time to call it a night, but before I do I want to add my thanks to everyone else's for what you do. You may not realize you are appreciated but from what I've heard the last two days - you are, by more people than you can possibly know. Linda Haas Davenport
