Conference and we posed the question of holding the International Straw Bale Conference here in Colorado in the fall of 2012. We had strong enough support to move <span id="misspell-0"><span>forward</span></span>, pitch the idea and then begin <span id="misspell-1"><span>preparations<var id="yui-ie-cursor"></var></span></span>. So our First question: Is anyone else preparing to host the International conference for 2012? Do we have your support and blessing for the International Straw Bale Conference in Colorado, Fall of 2012? Also any folks that are willing to pitch in and help us with the planning, organizing, advertising and such please let it be known to us.</span></div><div><span>Thank you</span></div><div> </div><div>Dusty 'gonna ride a
