  6. Is Blue Ribbon relatively new? I thought GAIM events were the biggest.

    on a side note, CAIA had free passes to these events this year, obviously limited quantities, but quick ones got them.. considering, most of them are 2k each, you cant beat the benefits of CAIA membership if one wants to attend them.

    :eek: Uh oh, those are fighting words. I would pay money to get you and riskarb in the same room. Record the exchange on video and sell it to the members of ET and donate the proceeds to charity. :p
