Gute Reise!

Team Members,
Eliska and I (that’s her on the cover and that’s NOT me standing next to her) have had a lot of fun browsing your blog these past several months as you prepare for your big research mission in Munich. Personally, I’ve really enjoyed the back and forth banter, the quick wit and the humorous posts. It’s all in keeping with the spirit of The BDG2M to have a great time and enjoy Munich in every way possible. Most of those ways involve beer, and you folks have broken the code. Yours is truly a league-sanctioned event. Have a great trip, stay safe not sober, and if possible send us back a digital pix or two for the website. Cheers and Prosit!

Larry,

Thanks for all of the participation and encouragement as departure day arrives. Your book has always been our "guiding light", ever since 1993 when BarleyMan said "hey, get this great book". We went to the local book store, asked for it, and got some really strange stares and comments. They checked, they had it, and it has been almost a cult following since.

We will certainly try to post while we are there. Either from the hotel, or the Internet Cafe at the Hauptbahnhof. I plan to take my PC as well, so hopefully a picture or two can be shared.

We have advertised for Field Researchers to meet up with us on Friday, so we shall see what occurs. Also, hopefully this crew of bier drinking fools can get the opportunity to meet with you and Eliska some time in the future.

Prosit!

Larry,

Thanks for your knowledge (in the form of the book) and your support.

We'll report back what we can, as we can.

Prosit!

Larry,

What a great send off. It appears our trip may be a little wet, but that has never stopped this crew before.

Keep an eye out for our reports.

Hopefully, it will be easier to meet with Larry than it was the time we tried to get Jimmy Buffet to come to our cookout :>)
