[DML] DCS2006 suggestions

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Regarding the tech thing----since the 2006 show is in our area, we're 
looking at the possibility of hosting a pre-show tech event. This 
would have to be somewhat controlled (planned) as I'm sure my neighbors, 
already somewhat troubled by the Monster Garage thing (and the big 
white trailer currently in my driveway) would not be amused by 35 
DeLoreans lined up in the front yard. It's a long way off, but 
consider it a possibility for those who want to show up a few days 
early (or stay late).

We could also look into setting up one of those portable lifts in the 
PR parking lot, I'll bet. 

Dave (and Rich and Marty.....).
