Aaron and list - my last message went out before it was complete. The heat
from my hands sometimes triggers the touch pad.
I agree that it is nice to have a full transcript of the national meeting.
My question is similar to others - did the video company get paid a fee, and
then harvest a $150 per set profit on top of the recording fee? Again,
normally, I'd expect to sign a release - that's when I would have asked these
questions.
FYI, it only costs a couple of dollars to make copies of a CD or DVD set.
Now, if the video company did this on video spec, then they will have
equipment, travel, and salaries to recover, and fully I understand the charge for
each set. If their expenses were paid, then I might question the cost of the
sets, although I would have no objection if the money were to go back to the
bee associations where it can be put to good use.
Also, I've already had some fallout from the recording. I've folks who
listened to audio in the absence of the video and slides, then drew erroneous
conclusions about what my group said during the Commercial Beekeeper SIG. One
of these is causing us some problems.
If this meeting is going to be recorded, all of the presentation (images and
audio) should be provided. Maybe the CD/DVD is complete - I haven't bought
it.
