Subject: SYMPOSIUM VIDEO/AUDIO/TRANSCRIPT OFFER

From ALAN ROGERS:
Well, guys, here is the video/audio/transcript offer some of you have
emailed me on.  I have typed it in verbatim as it was sent to me.

Please note the following:

1) I have no financial interest in this venture.  I get not nickel one.
   If I want any of these items I have to buy them just like you.
2) Douglas Carlson, the man behind this venture has told me that the
   proceeds obtained for the symposium and its video will be distributed
   amongst several sites including AARC, and the Committee for Open File
   and other ventures of the same nature.  If you hate the critics
   community then don't buy these items, for the money will fund these
   research sites.
3) Doug said a lot of thought went into how to price these items.  He
   wanted them to not be out of reach for the critics and researchers,
   and yet he wanted them to be profitable for future purposes.  I think
   that he probably came to the best price he could.  $165 for the entir
   15 hour symp/press confer/dinner maybe hard on some but it seems to b
   a bargain when you consider how much commercial videos are priced.
4) I have not seen these videos myself but have been assured that they
   reflect the best of the event.  I, myself, have to consider whether I
   will avoid the cost and just get the transcripts for research
   purposes but after all, I did attend in person.  Those that didn't
   might want to get the total feel of the event.  Isn't it nice that we
   have a choice in these matters?
5) Look for the adjoining posting about future chicago symposiums.
