Years ago, when the Type 2 list was still real active, everyone from that list that was at OCTO in S. California gathered & took a pic for the rest of the Listees enjoyment/dispparagement?
I met some volks that I had "known" on the list that I had never met in person before, & a number that I never saw again-so this might be something for all vanagon.comers to ponder doing?
YMMV,
Mr. BZ-the faces might be changed to protect the innocent?

I'll have a rainbow beach umbrella outside my white w/ blue curtains Vanagon Tin Top, that might be a place to start. I took the liberty of making about 30 nametags with the Vanagon.com blue logo; will bring Sharpie and roll of masking tape, write name and home town and stick onto shirt (noooooo, you don't have to.....).

If we have at least a designated time & place to meet, would be best chance to meet everybody, probably over 30 of us I imagine. And the nametags are so we don't have to immediately remember all 30 names.
