I had a chance to take-in this event today and found it quite informative in a variety of ways. Several speakers and question & answer segments from the audience also added to the presentation. I've always enjoyed Irish whiskey and this event culminated in my wanting to explore some of the newer releases. _________________ "Always carry a large flagon of whisky in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake."

I experienced a lack of picture for most of the broadcast also, it appears they did have some technical problems and plan to make a video of the entire show available to watch at your leisure.

Thanks William. I'll keep an eye open for those Irish whiskey expressions. I also found some technical difficulties with the video earlier, "on and off" though the audio was fine. I would watch it again if they post it as you mentioned. _________________ "Always carry a large flagon of whisky in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake."

Thanks William. I wanted to see it again without the intermittent technical difficulties during the actual broadcast. _________________ "Always carry a large flagon of whisky in case of snakebite and furthermore always carry a small snake."
