It would be nice to see the date, and had this a little sooner. With such a distinguished “cast” it wouldn’t be out of line to have a donate button close to video performance, and at least suggest a free will donation. I had to pay $25.00 for a CD of the AGWF conference held in Denver a few months ago. I’ll double my donation if you can get John Barthlow to give a demonstration on training Iguanas. Thanks, Greg Heiden
