Damian will not be making his North American tour this year. We're now on the lookout for a closing keynote speaker. If anyone has any thoughts or suggestions, please feel free to share. I haven't decided yet if we will try to find another trainer to offer a Master course or just leave it with brian and Randal's offerings.

By local, I mean Houston. Just a random thought...
