Why the drama?

Ed,
Why not repond in short bursts so folks can respond back? Why the hype?
"I will respond!"

"I am writing!"

"Pretty soon?"

"You just wait and see!"

This is exactly what drove me up the wall the last couple of years. There was always this, "Can't talk about it just yet", "Got a big surprise", "As soon as I can, I will tell you", aspect of the Fling planning by it's nature was exclusionary unless you became an attendee, to see what Ed had cooked up for you.

Can't we get past this?
I don't know about 180 pages, but there has been some good and some pointed posts in here. Why not deal with the folks concerns and suggestions as they develop, rather than asking them just to wait to see what you have for them in the form of a response.

If you would take a few minutes you can deal with it easier than waiting 4 months after the Fling to talk to us.

I don't care about charity, the money and all the other evolved ancillary features of the Fling.All I am interested in is, will there be a Fling 5 ? Will you allow or welcome input and direction from folks who have indicated a desire to have a hand in organizing this thing? That is all I care about!
