Has there ever been a convention or gathering of EDS forum members? Wouldn't it be great to see each other face to face and also have an opportunity to have EDS and/or Product Suppliers show us their stuff in a Skin Care Convention?! |

That is a great idea! How would you want EDS to organize this? One is set up in each Province? |

I think this is an excellent idea. I've been wanting to do something like this for a long time. I would be willing to lecture on cosmetic chemistry and raw material ingredient function in cosmetics. No charge. I do this all the time all over the world anyway, but I speak to other cosmetic chemists and raw material venders. I think it would be extremely helpful to speak to cosmetic consumers.
Listen, Phoenix is a beautiful place in the fall and winter time.
Is someone willing to step up and work on producing an event in the Phoenix area? I would be there for sure. I could even give formulating demonstrations for the "do it yourself" fans.

Wow, John, you are a great addition to this forum. I even read the posts that have nothing to do with me, if they are written by you!
I would certainly think about coming and might even bring a friend from Vancouver. Use some of those frequent flyer miles and have some fun! |

Hey....GREAT! Should I post this in the other EDS forums and see if I can stir up some interest/enthusiasm?!? I was afraid to post it elsewhere, since it didn't quite fit in the "Skincare" or "DIY arena." I don't even know where EDS is geographically located, but John, I think Phoenix sounds wonderful, even though I'm in the southeast! |

Heh, EDS is located in Vancouver, BC, right above the U.S. border to Washington State. A nice 2-3 hour drive from Seattle, so of course I'm biased towards keeping it in my neck of the woods. But I think it would be great if something got organized, I just couldn't travel to attend this winter.
I got together with my first real-live-EDSer the other week, since we both live in Seattle, and we were both tickled by how much fun it was to meet up in person. So I can attest that it would probably be a great time if you can get something going. Good luck! |

I could not attend anywhere due to my circumstances, but if this ever comes off it would be great, if a video/DVD could be made for EDS members to purchase. It would be lovely to actually see some of you in person, and for others that cannot attend, we wouldn't feel we were missing out so much. |

Ooh, this would be a great idea! As distasteful as I find the desert to be [having lived in Phoenix/Tempe for 7 years], Nov/Dec/Jan/Feb are good times to visit and I'd be willing to take the jaunt to hear John speak especially for DIY formulation!
Barring that, wouldn't it be fun to have it in the lovely Pacific Northwest? |

Hey that's a good idea. The overseas members can have their own convention. Of course it would be more fun if the founders could participate as well. |
