Posted Thu Nov 13, 2003, 1:06am Subject: Re: history of the Roaster's Guild
Two things I can tell you
a) limited history I know... Don Schoenholt originally headed up the foundation, but for a variety of reasons, it kind of stagnated. Mike Ebert came in to head it up, and was a lightning rod that made things all fall in place. Guys to talk to about the Guild - obviously Chris D, Dismas, Terry at Stumptown, also Barry Jarrett.
b) I'll give Mike Ebert a call and tell him you're thinking about an article. I think Mike would like to help out, if he has time. Email me your phone number again, willya
