Tom, sorry didnt realize you asked a question..EPD is another type of Certification which is easier and a ‘SHOW me The data” type certification…with all these green labels out there MFGs are realizing which ones are beneficial…Greengaurd certification probaly wouldnt have sold much if it didnt have the word Green in it..EPD is a more transparent certification…Surface fabrication just did a release about it in their article online Im sure you can google it….
November 16, 2009 at 10:39 am #55715Tom MMemberThanks. It sounds like a more common sense certification based on what I’ve been griping about these last couple of years.
November 17, 2009 at 12:19 am #55730Andy GravesKeymasterBitchen pictures. Glad to see you meet up with people in the industry. Maybe I should have gone. Uhg.
I thought you said the show was in Arizona. Kinda off the beaten path if you ask me. The turnout was excellent. What is the secret to create a successful, long lasting show?
November 17, 2009 at 6:03 am #55733Jon OlsonMemberGene nice pics. Grant goes to a ton of shows every year. He thought this was the best show he’s been to in some while. Gene ,Grant enjoyed his time with you. He loves your style.Andy last year’s show was in Boston. Not sure how them come up with the cities to hostNovember 17, 2009 at 6:03 am #55734Gene McDonaldMemberI think it has to be something has never seen before…it seems we already know whats gonna be at our specific shows and we really just go their to seeour friends…and if budgets dont allow…then your friends would hafta settle for e mail
I met so many new friends and Im glad they werent just countertoppers…I need designers, specifiers and archys…it was great but I am just the kionda guy that has a good time when most may not…this show might have bored some…green is my thing…but to some of youse guys that would be like watching grass grow…what interests us is what makes the show…if it mentally taxes people…they will make up excuses as to why they cannot attend
most shows we know a year in advance…its not that we are busy…its that we wanted to be busy during and we can read the reviews and pictures on new media…could be wrong but thats what I seem to see
November 17, 2009 at 6:05 am #55735Gene McDonaldMemberNext year Chicago…folks
November 17, 2009 at 4:36 pm #55746Steve MehanMemberGene , Great pictures thanks for sharing.

November 18, 2009 at 5:41 am #55757Gene McDonaldMemberJoe..isnt she..very down to earth…Kevin.there is an unwritten rule for people like us…always have a camera with you…i always have a camera because i am facinated with designs of everything from nature to busstop benches..
plus thats why I share here so those that werent there can kinda meet people without being there…My friends look out for me like family…the least i can do is share pics on here
November 18, 2009 at 7:20 am #55759Kevin PaddenMemberThis was one of the FEW times I DIDN’T follow “the rule” !!! Argh!!!
November 18, 2009 at 10:38 am #55760Gene McDonaldMemberKevin..ya know I didnt even think to ask you or wags if youse are gonna be there..It seems Green doesnt interest many people on here, so I wasnt too keen On saying “oh greenbuild is coming anyone going?” Al Gore will be keynote speaker..talk about a hot thread that would open up…my friend Wags would be bringing pitchforks to greenbuild LOL Like he mentioned on the other posts and I wouldnt have enough money to bond him out LOL
Now I feel like a dingbat when I see he was there and you were also…so next green event I dont care I am shouting it from the rooftops..sorry friends
I probaly missed out on a good handshake from Wags and kevin…it wont happen againNovember 18, 2009 at 7:49 pm #55779Un-AuthorizedMemberPosted By Gene McDonald on 18 Nov 2009 05:41 AM
Joe..isnt she..very down to earth…Gene:
Yes. down to earth; I like that. Kinda like Mary Ann on Gilligans Island. I hate it when guys are sexist pigs and say stuff like “She is smokin’ hot.” I’ll stick with delightful.
