Now with this I do not agree. I visited Dayton for the first time this 
year - it's an expensive, poorly organised dump. I have never been to such a 
wretched event. the O'Hara arena should be rasied to the ground as a matter 
of high priority. I will never visit Dayton again.

In two weeks the major European event takes place at Friedrichshafen in 
Germany on the lake of Constance where 18,000 attend. The difference is like 
night and day. Nice modern exhibition centre, good food and drink, plenty of 
room to sit down outside and anjoy a few beers in a civilised environment.
