Jarrod,

Your segment was one of the main reasons why I was interested in going to Oztec
2000. If you read the fine print after you have bought your ticket it says that
the organisers have the right to change speakers without notice. Bummer!

I am sure that if you were to come over to Australia and wanted to teach some
courses while you are here there would be no shortage of takers. 

I checked the GUE instructor directory and currently there are no GUE
instructors in Australia. Do you know of any that aren't listed?

Jarrod, is it true the  organizer of Oztec 2000 is the local head of TDI? Is
it true that he is a deep air fan? Is it also true that he was on the boat
when Rob Palmer died?
Is it true that this Oztec had Batman as its star speaker last year, and
that this year they have his wannabe little brother and a list of strokes
that would bring tears of laughter to an American audience?

JJ, sounds like you got lucky. Unfortunately , anyone who wanted the real
deal got fucked, but then if anyone thought they were going to get any
different out of TDI, well then they need to see PT Barnum.
