I really enjoyed Tony's talk. Notice that we actually kept paying attention for an hour!!! I appreciated the cultural info, not jut stuff about fish.
Great job!

It was a great meeting! Tony's talk was perfect. (I'm glad he didn't show pictures of chigger bites!)
The auction had relatively few items, but very high quality.

Really enjoyed Tony's talk. I liked that he included a sociology/anthropology component. Well done!

I try... we really do have some great fish in our monthly auctions. Thanks to the folks who bring them!
While I have long since stopped trying to understand fish auction microeconomics, reality is that people will stop bringing good fish if they don't get something approximating decent for them!
Great job to Christine for figuring out how to project the images up. Was it helpful?

Very good talk Tony! As an individual who is interested in making a trip like that myself I definitely appreciate the cost analysis. Nice powerpoint as well. I hope to make a similar trip to Panama, Colombia, Ecuador. 2015 how did you make guide arrangements?

It was helpful and will inspire me to do a better job taking photos and adding them to the mygroupauctions listings.

I think the photos are helpful for bidders who are bidding on immature fish and don't really know what they're looking at. So yes, helpful

I agree the pics are a great help. I think it is even helpful for items that don't really need a picture like daphnia if potential buyers happen to miss the announcement of the item, to be able to see the item description.

Thanks all for coming. Have some videos I was showing Michael after the meeting that I would have liked to have show. Need to edit (shorten) them a bit, but will post them up in the next couple of days.

I think Tony's talk could've went longer and he would still have our full attention, but the stories and pictures really made it seem like a fun trip (regardless of the chiggers).
