Mark, awesome effort you're putting in so I wanted you to know how much it's appreciated from thousands of miles away. You rock! Just wanted to say thanks heaps! Now, time to go make an espresso as there's plenty more for me to read here. JM

Between Mark's blog and flickr page as well as the portafilter podcast, it's like I'm in Charlotte! Just finished listening to the PF podcast 29, and now they have TWO new ones just posted. "We're doing a bunch of shorter podcasts from Charlotte SCAA 2006, so these posts on pf.net will be truncated to save time" Both of the podcasts just posted are about 90 min long! Keep up the good work everyone!
There was a new Chinese home drum roster that rotated on a diagonal line, sort of like an amusement park ride. I started coughing from the smoke and walked away before writing down the name. It looked a little bigger than an Alp. I'm sure someone else will have more info.
