Next we broke to the book exchange which appears
to have been an on-going all day event. Larry brought copies of his book
on the last exhibit and Kurt had several of his books as well. There was
the usual collector madness but soon this ended and we concluded with
the official KWA meeting aspect, election of new officers and a brief
discussion of the goals of the organization.

Guy
van Habberney, new KWA treasurer (from 2008 on) took part in discussion. |
The
new board:
Guy van Habberney (treasuerer),
Andy Ansel
(chairman) and
Jurgen Stigter
(deputy chairman). |

was a present for the new chairman as well! |

Here
we broke off into several groups. Most of us went to the upscale pizzeria
Otto (in Greenwich Village) where we shared lots of food and wine
with each other in a very "hip" (and loud) atmosphere (left
and below). |
Phil
Wong, Andy Ansel, Leigh Harrington and Brian Karen |
| Afterwards,
several people went to the Empire State Building and Times Square.
