ReplyDeleteAaaaaaahhh...
ReplyDeleteMakes all the sense in the world now.
Jay and I are dumb. Thanks Mike!
At this point in time, Board members are paying their own way to meetings for the WBC. The WBC itself will re-imburse board members once it is on stable financial footing.
ReplyDeleteNick and Jay, while meetings in Paris sound pretty extravagnt, keep in mind the the WBC is a joint partnership of the SCAA and the SCAE and it's board is split right down the line.
Paris is very close for the Eropean board members and cuts on cost. We split the meeting to 1/3 in the U.S. 1/3 in Europe and 1/3 in the WBC host city.

In my book, any excuse to fly Virgin Atlantic Premium Economy is a good excuse.
ReplyDeleteEspecially if someone else pays.
One thing I was hoping to hear was the origin of the name "Small Axe". Anyone able to shed light on that?
ReplyDeleteAnother fine podcast! How does competing "out of regional" work at the barista comps? From the pics, it appears that one of our very-determined NWRBC competitors entered at GLRBC, too.
ReplyDeleteHey!
ReplyDeleteIt'd be quiiiite interesting if you were to in fact go into the racial issues... ;-)
