Things to do in Miami...

From: Jill Bell godjillab at home.com> on 2001.09.07 at 14:50:53(7403) Hello everybody, I will be arriving in Miami very early on the 20th of Sept. and I am leaving very late on the 24th. If anyone would care to join me on some of my jaunts around town, I am (sorry to say) skipping the nude beaches in lieu of Parrot Jungle, Dewey's, Denis's, probably Mickey Carmichael's if I have time, and walking every morning maybe at Haulover (sic) beach. I am renting a car and staying at the Dadeland Ramada. Will take other suggestions as well, I am lots of fun and like to make fun of everything so be careful.........

No nuddy beach visits, no Spath species in the auction, no mention of Spath Nursery Tours, IAS maybe running out of back issue Aroideanas, that's it, I can't come this year. Everybody...Seriously I hope its the best ever....and if there are any affordable Spath species in the Booths....? And of course, any Show "stories" some of you need to +More reveal, report...later?

From: Denis denis at skg.com> on 2001.09.10 at 22:18:53(7440) Ron: There are acres and acres of Spathiphyllum growing here in South Florida in shade houses. Unfortunately, they are all tissue cultured, hybrid commercial varieties designed for florist, interiorscape or Mass-market chain stores consumption. I don't think you could find a species in the lot with the exception of a few florabunda varieties designed for small pot usage. The best usage I found for them was the nurseryman who painted all the spathes red for Valentines day with florist paint. They were beautiful until the next set of buds opened and disappointed the owners with their plain white coloring.

Hi there. Still coming down? What airport are you flying from? I just cancelled several business trips scheduled for this and next month. Meetings were cancelled because too many other were declining to be at meetings. I have always wondered what it was like when Pearl Harbor was attacked. I think I am finally getting my answer. Don

From: Jill Bell godjillab at home.com> on 2001.09.15 at 14:04:52(7503) Hi Don, I have not changed my plans, though who knows what will happen. I am flying out of Hartford on a non-stop to Miami, AA. It leaves at 6:30 am ostensibly, so perhaps I should just sleep at the airport. (just kidding but nothing seems funny) I have very strong feelings of needing to get away first of all, and since the unspeakable events of the eleventh took place, in a strange way even though I have never met any of you face to face I feel strong ties to some of you. (You, Dewey, Scott, Petra, Julius), so it will be a very positive thing to meet those of you that are there. Connections to people over the internet are a funny thing, it has certainly allowed (for me) the umbrella of caring, if you will, to extend into circles that are far removed from my ordinary life. I must tell you that since this happened, I have been amazed to see the inanity in which business as usual has been conducted by some on the list. I am not able to get to the point of lightness. I cannot get out of my mind what the friends and relatives of the missing must be feeling.
