It's on my calendar and I'm planning on attending.

It was indeed.  Nice meeting you too, I'm little by little putting a face to people who post here.  This may be a little off base but, I felt for as many times Mr. Helmke has engaged in these debates he would've been a little more prepared as it seemed like toward the end of his time was having trouble filling it and some of the more current statements being made in the press he wasn't aware of (Or chose to ignore).  Also appeared a few times to need Dr. Lott's verification on some of the statistics he was quoting,  I thought that odd, depending on your opponent?  Oh, and the protestors were interesting as well.  Overall an evening well spent and better than most.

Thank you, sir. Very interesting read.
