San Francisco Green Festival

Would be real nice for us tradespeople if there wasn't so many festivals, conferences, meetings, etc. etc. etc., and allot more front end investing and actual projects going on. Much better for the Country and Especially this Economy as well. But I guess the "your people meet mine." or "lets do lunch." crowd have to set everything up first. Ahhh, to be back in the old days, not so far past!
