Mark -- you have a PM.

Well, if anybody in a good place is willing to pay my way up to Timonium, I'd gladly try and drum up something worthy of the event.

As I am pretty close by, I could bring some Tibetan stuff. Nothing fantastic perhaps--and I am afraid it would be rather more like the old fashioned show and tell than an exhibit with a thesis. I am afraid that at this point I have more questions than answers.

Thanks for all the response. We have a respectable line-up of presentations so far:

John Crosby, "Weapons of Aceh"
Barry Parks, "The Use of Marine Life in Pacific Island War Clubs"
Nick Wardigo, "The Vietnamese Shield"
Ian Greaves, "Lumad Swords of Mindanao"
Mark Bowditch, "The Use of Koftgari on Burmese Swords"

I will make sure that we have a couple tables set aside for the more informal show-and-tell presentations, such as dennee's on Tibetan weapons. BTW, let me know if you need a whole table or reserved half table, dennee, and if you intend to include a hand-out of some sort (I think that would qualify for a listing as a presentation).

I think that we might have room for a couple more, if anyone is interested.
